Hope

One of the most amazing things about faith in Jesus Christ is that we ALWAYS have hope.  There is always hope for the future -- this doesn't mean you have guaranteed happiness or fun or wealth, but it does mean that you have hope in knowing that God is good, He is in control and He WILL take care of you!  If we recognize that we all have a human nature that struggles with sin (selfishness, greed, lust, etc) and try to turn away from that sin (He will help you, just ask Him!) and then TRUST Him, we can know that we will have a life of awesome eternity after we leave the trials and challenges that are so prevalent on this earth.

Some of these days have been so difficult and I truly believe that if it wasn't for this hope and the strength that God provides, I wouldn't be the person, wife, mommy, daughter, sister, friend that I am today. 

"...but those who HOPE in the Lord will renew their strength.  They will SOAR on wings like eagles; they will RUN and not grow weary; they will walk and not be faint."  Isaiah 40:31

I'll pray for you today!   Sincerely,  Elizabeth
