S – We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain
Hebrews 6:19 CSB
O – Christian hope is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls. In the first century, an anchor was an image of stability and safety. • through the curtain: A curtain separated the outer room of the sanctuary, into which only priests could go, from the inner room, the Most Holy Place (Exod 25:10–40). Only the high priest could go into the Most Holy Place, and only once per year on the Day of Atonement.

A – I Corinthians 13 tells us that three things remain – faith, hope and love. Anita Phillips wrote, “Faith is me believing what God can do. Hope is believing what God can do for me.” Hope brings a personal element to our faith. Christ brings hope to all situations and secures trust and safety.
R – Heavenly Father, we surrender and worship you. You alone are worthy of both. Thank you for being an anchor for our souls today. In the turbulence we face, we know that our anchor brings safety, security and peace.
