After chapter after chapter of anger and justice, when you feel hopeless, there comes hope. And not just a glimpse of hope but a flood of hope. From the wreckage and chaos a man will rise that will change everything. A man that will bring peace and balance.
The crazy thing is that this was written 700 years before Christ was born. That is a long time to live in waiting. It is no wonder when Christ came people were so excited. Yet, 2000 years ago it appeared that with is death all hope was lost again. I can't imagine putting so much hope in Him only to have Him die. But there was more hope in His death then in His life. For His death is what changed history and our lives eternally. His death is what conquered our hopeless future. Now we have a chance to have a relationship with God, we have the power to conquer sin, we have the hope of eternal life with someone fair and just that loves us as we are.
Now that hope is worth living for!
