1 Peter 1:3-12

Sometimes hope can cloud observation. Sometimes hoping for a certain outcome can blind us to reality. There are times in life when we need to be realistic not blindly optimistic.

But Easter is not one of those times. At Easter, all our hopes are made concrete by the physical resurrection of our Savior—the ultimate fulfillment of God’s promise to us. On Easter, Christ’s empty tomb is the place where hope and observation collide.
