What is HOPE? Hope is not "wishful thinking." It has to be something solid. Something that never fails. Any and every thing in this world WILL fail us because any and every thing in this world will come and go. And we all know this because over and over we have placed our hope in things only to have lost it. The only true hope we have is that of an eternal God with an eternal plan. Yes, we can enjoy life and our loved ones but there is something more to all of this that consumes our daily thoughts and activity.
Christmas is all about HOPE. Christmas is about the God-child: Jesus, the Messiah (the One who saves); Immanuel (God with us). Jesus IS our HOPE. We have an everlasting hope through Jesus. When we truly understand who Jesus is and why He came to earth 2000 years ago then we can truly understand what HOPE is. THEN we will truly see the full scope and the HOPE of Christmas.
