Day 280. What does the second commandment teach you about hope?

Today is day 280 and we are studying The Second Commandment.

280. What does the second commandment teach you about hope?

It teaches me that my ultimate hope is in God alone, for he alone is God and he made me. I must not look for salvation and fulfillment in myself, another person, my wealth or occupation or status, or any created thing. Only in God will I find perfect love and fulfillment. (Psalm 62; Isaiah 45:20–25; Matthew 6:19–24; 1 Thessalonians 1:9–10)

We will conclude today by praying the The Collect for the Fifth Sunday in Lent found on page 606 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
