Many enter into this season with much hope, but end with hope deferred. This happens because we hope in things that are not always able to deliver on their promise. Mary put her hope in God to bring about salvation in her humble state. She put her hope in the one who holds the future. She had an expectant hope that would not be deferred for long. This is true for all who put their hope in God to bring about a hope-filled future through Jesus Christ.
