During hardships, we are lovingly led by our faithful God to a breakthrough of finding hope again. 1. Hardships feel dark, overwhelming, and hopeless! (v.1-18) 2. Breakthrough to hope: a) we appeal to God to see our hardships b) we call to mind the truth about God, c) we re-interpret our hardships, daring to hope again. (v.19-21) 3. Re-interpretation: The LORD is all we need for hope and comfort during our hardships. (v. 22-24) Where do you reach for hope and a reason to go on? Who is on our side when we have sinned? 1 John 2:1 How does this remind you of Christ's sufferings? Is. 53, Ps.22 Why should we not be anxious during difficulties? Rom. 8:28
