Our hope

Our hope in Christ for the future is the mainspring and the support of our joy here. It will animate  our hearts to think often of heaven, for all that we can desire is promised there.

Here sin is a constant grief to us,

we

are weary and toil worn, 

are always in the field of battle;

are so tempted within,

are so molested by foes without,

that we have little or no peace;

Colossians 1 : 5

The hope which is laid up for you in heaven.
