Day 8 of 30 · 30 Days of Hope

which is to us as an anchor, that retaineth our soul, so that it swerveth not; and it entereth into that within the veil,

whither Jesus hath previously entered for us, and hath become a priest for ever, after the likeness of Melchisedec.

CONTEXT

Original word: ἄγκυραν (ánkyra) · an "anchor" (as crooked)

REFLECTION

Hope is often a practice before it is a feeling. Hebrews 6:19 invites you to wait, trust and remember.

PRAYER

Faithful God, thank you for your promises. Help me to hold on to them when I cannot see the way. Amen.

QUESTION

Where do you need hope today?

ONE ACTION TODAY

Pray for someone you know who is going through a hard season.

Reflections are drafts awaiting pastoral review.
