There is hope

It amazes me how God knows what we need in advance. On a day that has been nothing but discouraging, everything seems to keep directing me back to hope...true hope.

Hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts.
Romans 5:5
Hope is in the breath of the Holy Spirit. Hope is yours and mine to keep -
and to know we'll never be embarrassed by God for having hoped in His
grace!

To cling to hope is to cling to the Lord. Hope is born of the
certainty the Holy Spirit wants to instill in us - to know God already has the
situation in hand. The future is settled in His mind. And to hope is to embrace
the confidence that everything God has promised to be, already exists.
