The Spirit of Despair

Pastor Walt Thinks Out Loud and tells us if you have no hope you are in despair. God did not intend for us to have no hope, but many people don't have hope. You feel hopeless, nobody cares, nobody is interested in you, you've experienced all kinds of things, all kinds of people, but something is missing in your life. Those in despair have no hope about their marriage, no hope about their children, their health, their finances, their job, their profession, no hope about their future, about life itself, no hope about life after death, no hope about eternity. We all need hope. How do we find hope in the perplexity and turmoil of the world around us? God is with us in our despair. God has a purpose, even our suffering has a purpose ... a good purpose because all things work together for God's good for them that love God. Listen in to learn how God uses our suffering for His Glory. Visit Walt McFadden at Cityview Church [https://www.cvcmpls.org/]
