There is no hope for a heart that will not open to God. There is no reprieve, no forgiveness, no future, no present, no love. There is no grace for a heart that will not grasp the grace offered. There is no hope for for a heart beaten down by life and its circumstances without looking for the one who conquered all circumstances. There is no good, no fun, no experience, no feeling that can overcome the depths of despair that breathing produces or breathing receives without clutching the Savior’s outstretched hand.
Jesus is real. Jesus sustains. Jesus abides. Jesus knows. Jesus cares. Jesus loves, saves, guards, keeps, provides, intercedes, endures, supports, listens, and befriends.
He is hope personified, now and forever.
But without opening to him, there is no hope for that heart.
