Hope
Here is a beautiful poem I found in my The Answers Bible, that I would like to share with you. It's titled "What is hope?", by Mark D. Sanders & Tia Sillers...
What is hope?
To want? To desire?
To expect that what's envisioned
may indeed happen?
YES to all of the above.
Is hope that gut feeling that it's
worth holding out
and hanging on for just a little longer?
ABSOLUTELY.
Is hope the core of the human condition?
CERTAINLY.
Can you hope without
faith and humility and wonder?
THAT'S TOUGH.
Just the thought that there's something bigger,
something truer, something really surprising
out there waiting for us is ...
priceless.
What would you be without hope
growing deep in your bones,
thriving in every inch of you?
NOTHING.
What does it take to hope?
EVERYTHING.
Hope takes never ceasing to be amazed ...
Wearing your soul on your sleeve ...
Holding your breath, waiting to hear
"I love you, too ..."
Believing
that tomorrow could be better than today ...
that you'll get a second chance ...
that you'll make a difference ...
that you matter.
=====
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. In God's great mercy he has caused us to be born again into a living hope, because Jesus Christ rose from the dead. Now we hope for the blessings God has for his children. ~ 1 Peter 1:3-4
