Five Minute Friday…
Hope soars and dips, ebbs and flows. Sometimes when life is at it’s darkest moments, hope shines bright guiding us to the One who authors such goodness. Other times it dims and we have to cling to the bare glimpse of it; fighting to believe it still exists. Through it all, God not only gives us that hope, but He delivers on it. He knows the plans He has for us, plans for our good not evil. Plans to give us a future and hope.
>>>
I don’t know where you are right now when it comes to hope. But don’t give up. Keep hanging on, and give it all to God. He brings beauty from ashes. He gives hope to the hopeless. His plans are for our good. Hang in there. Keep your eyes on Him, and rest in His loving arms.

Reminds me of a line from a movie…”I nurtured the hope that there WAS hope…”
Sean Connery said it, so cast it in a Scots burr.
