God is not our last hope. He is our only hope. Meaning that if we continue to turn away from God instead of towards him then mankind is doomed and beyond salvation. Everything today is in a panic. There are natural disasters in abundance, novel viruses circulating like Covid-19 that sow chaos and economic upheaval. Many people believe that we are living in the end times because of all the fear, terror, and pain experienced in these modern times. There are no man made solutions to these problems, only God can provide hope right now.

In general the world has started to turn away from God. Greed, lust, physical pleasures, gluttony, and many other worldly pursuits have become common. There are still many of the faithful out there, those who keep God's word and follow his teachings closely. These people still have hope because they know that God will provide and he has a plan in mind even though we do not understand what this plan is at the moment. If you truly believe and have faith then you know there is something after this life, death is not the end.

God provides hope through his teachings and his word. During the Covid pandemic there have been numerous incidents of human kindness and compassion, as well as reports of hoarding and violence, showing that there is still hope for man if we turn towards God instead of away from our heavenly father. When you know God and you have a close relationship with him then you understand that this life is a trial, and how well you do determines whether you are rewarded in the next life.
