What are you hoping for?

And I'm not referring to a boob job or for United to win the league.

It might be a happy marriage. To be a good parent. To launch a new church in a scary part of town. To overcome the battle with cancer. To pass that important exam. To provide for your family for another month. To see that latest business venture to completion. To fall in love with that one person. To get over that tragic loss. To see that friend healed from depression.

Deep down we all have very real, very important, very genuine desires.


It would need to take something like the death and resurrection of Jesus to be able to pull any one of them off.
