Steer Toward the Hope!

 “if you continue in your faith, established and firm,

and do not move from the hope held out in the gospel.”

Colossians 1:23

Have you ever had to swerve to avoid something in the road?

A deer suddenly darts out or a car crosses the double solid line and you are forced to swerve to avoid a collision.

When you consider the word ‘swerve’ it usually is not a term you would use if you were giving someone directions as in:

“Drive two miles and then swerve to the left at the fork in the road.”

Swerving implies a sudden unexpected response.

The writer of Hebrews declared –

“Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess,

for he who promised is faithful.”

Hebrews 10:23

Hold on unswervingly to the hope you profess.

Don’t let life’s surprises cause a sudden unexpected response out of you.

In those moments, hold on to that hope.

Keep both hands on the wheel of your faith and steer toward the hope!
