In Star Wars – A New Hope, there is a scene where Princess Leia sends a message through R2D2, pleading for help from Obi-Wan Kenobi. “Help us, Obi-Wan; You’re our only hope,” she says.
The Bible talks a great deal about hope, a thing which many of us seem to feel is in short supply these days. Few can honestly say they have hope in a strong economy, and even fewer believe that our presidential candidates offer real hope. I don’t know about you, but when I look at the immediate future, I see little hope for a brighter tomorrow. Christ is our only hope.
He is the only hope for salvation. He is the only hope for our nation. He is the only hope for a stronger economy.
I recently signed up with a group that prays daily for our nation. So far, every single one of the group prayers have been an examination of our individual spiritual conditions. They get it: Christ is the only hope to change our nation, but change starts with me and you.
Help us, God. Save our nation. Help us to change, to once again be a Christian nation. Begin with me.
Let it start in me
Let it start in me
There’s a change a coming
