Where is our hope?
Reflecting on what I posted last night in regard to politics and gospel, and thinking about what our community is looking at Sunday night ( I Peter 1:13-25), I ran across the following:
"Through him (Jesus) you believe in God, who raised him fro the dead and glorified him, and so your faith and hope are in God." (vs 21)
So, what would it look like if our hope was entirely in God and not in nations or political candidates? When the Israelites were looking for political strength, they entirely missed the physical presence of God in their midst. Are we doing the same kind of thing?
Is our hope really in God? Certainly a question that still rings true today.

It might look like what the Psalmist had in mind.
Psalm 20:7
Some trust in chariots and some in horses,
but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.
