Read Isaiah 61:1-3 (https://bit.ly/2WZLEU1)
What do you need right now? Financial security? Emotional strength and peace? Friendship? Forgiveness? There is no one person on this earth who can meet all your needs. But Christ can. This passage in Isaiah is a prediction of Jesus and what Jesus would accomplish, what we know all these years later that He did accomplish. He proclaimed the good news: God loves you so much and gave His Son as a sacrifice in your place. He brings hope, light, and freedom. He takes our tears of sadness and redeems them for tears of joy. That doesn’t mean all the hardships cease. As Christians we will still face hardship and struggle, but walking with Jesus, we’ll get through it together. The end of verse 3 says we’ll be for God’s splendor. We’d call it helping others find the way back to God. That can make all the struggle worth it!
