In today’s message, Jacob (Israel) is at the end of his life. Jacob takes time to remind his children and grandchildren of the all the Lord has done and will do. He builds their hope.
It is good for us to consider our hope in the Lord and eternal life. Considering your hope in the Lord will build your and family’s faith. There are a couple of reasons why this matters. First, hope is like spiritual sight. When your stop considering hope, everything else gets foggy. Second, you can set the spiritual tone for your family. You can help build your family’s spiritual sight.
