| Cling and Hope By Billy Graham “The Lord will be a shelter for His people.” —Joel 3:16, NKJV The late British historian Arnold Toynbee gave his personal slogan to the world when he said, “Cling, and hope.” In other words, he said, all the ideals we held a few years ago are crumbling; but he advised the human race to cling and hope. But to what? Millions cling to the wreckage they have made of their lives, thinking they have nowhere else to turn. Others cling to false ideologies or deceptive cults. Still others cling to possessions, or relationships, or pleasures. Yes, “cling, and hope”—but what if you are clinging to something that is sinking? However, thousands still find refuge from the storms of life by their living faith in a living God! To turn to God in an hour such as this in the history of the world is not escapism. Multiplied thousands have found that faith in Christ is more than adequate for the pressures of this hour. The true Christian does more than “cling and hope.” He knows that with Christ he is secure forever. Is your hope in Him?  Hope for TodayHope in the Lord is not wishful thinking but confident expectation. We cling to what was accomplished on the Cross, and we place our hope in the One who has never let us down. | ||
