But we have this treasure in jars of clay
to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed.
2Corinthians 4:7-9
From the world's perspective it was a bad day... but with the treasure and knowledge of present Hope... the one who works ALL THINGS for the good of those who love Him... it was good.
Christmas centers on present Hope... Immanuel -- God with us -- entering into the world -- present -- to make the way for hope with us... in us always... making bad good...
And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit in whom he has given us.
Romans 5:5
Do you know present hope?
