Have you lost hope in your life's odyssey? Has the excitement of your adventure faded away because things seem to not go the right way? This was the situation in which the Israelites were during the Babylonian captivity. It appears that hope has been long gone for the Israelites. Yet, the Lord, who is merciful and gracious, has a plan that is surreal exciting. A plan that gives a "future and hope" to the then hopeless Israelites. In your life have you seen His love and care? I have surely seen in mine! Hence my sermon title, My Life: His Story.
