Day 17: Hope Is Here


I always want to

SEE HOPE

because

I always want

HOPE,

therefore

I am always anticipating

the

CHANGE

that

HOPE

brings.

HOPE~

the GREAT EXPECTATION

for

THE GOOD

to happen.

But what is THE GOOD?

Is GOOD based on this happening or that happening,

or is

THE GOOD

that

GOD IS HAPPENING,

even if this or that is not happening?

Hmm.

HOPE

is

BELIEVING

GOD IS ALWAYS HAPPENING.

HOPE

puts its TRUST in the UNSEEN

for

"We are saved by trusting. And trusting means looking forward to getting something we don’t yet have—for a man who already has something doesn’t need to HOPE

and trust that he will get it.

But if we must keep trusting GOD

for something that hasn’t happened yet,

it teaches us to wait patiently and confidently" (Romans 8:24-25).

HOPE is all around us

because

GOD is all around us.

HOPE never dies

because

JESUS DIED

to bring us

REAL HOPE,

that is out of this world,

yet it is held

so tightly on the

INSIDE

that it

makes

everything

CHANGE

because

HOPE

changes your

HEART.

And as your

HEART

changes

HOPE becomes so REAL

that it turns

into

REAL JOY

that is everlasting.

So even if

you & I

don't SEE HOPE on the outside

oh it is there,

because

GOD takes you

deeper & deeper

into

HIS HEART

which brings

HOPE to your HEART~ "Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day"

(2 Corinthians 4:16).

HOPE IS HERE

for

GOD WORKS ALL THINGS FOR THE GOOD

of those

WHO LOVE HIM (Romans 8:28).

THE GOOD

is the CHANGE that happens

on the INSIDE

as GOD uses

ALL THINGS

ALL PEOPLE

ALL PLACES

for

your

GOOD

because

HE takes the HOPELESS things

that BREAK your HEART

to draw you every so closer to

HIS HEART

to a place where it becomes

just you and HIM.

Because when you

experience

REAL HOPE,

GOD takes you out of this world

and into

HIS WORLD~

"My HOPE is built on nothing less Than JESUS' blood and righteousness I dare not trust the sweetest frame But wholly lean on JESUS' name

HOPE is found in nothing else but JESUS CHRIST"

(from "ON SOLID ROCK").

So even if you and I can't

SEE CHANGE on the outside

it doesn't mean

HOPE doesn't exist.

What if nothing in your world has changed on the outside,

but everything has changed in your INSIDE,

would that be enough?

Is there a

BROKEN RELATIONSHIP

or a

BROKEN CIRCUMSTANCE

that is causing

the BROKEN FEELING

of HOPELESSNESS

in your heart,

that is causing you to

HOPE LESS?

Are you ready to let go of the

LESS from HOPE?

Oh I know I am.

Therefore,

will you join me

and take your eyes off of

what appears to be

UNCHANGING on your OUTSIDE world

by fixing your eyes

on WHO IS SEEN in ALL THINGS at ALL TIMES

so that

HOPE becomes so alive

that you

become ever so alive

because

JESUS becomes so alive in you

that all you can

SEE is HOPE

because

JESUS IS HERE.

Therefore,

you

"NEVER WALK ALONE" (listen to the song below)


JESUS becomes so alive in you

that all you can

SEE

is HOPE

because

"MY HOPE IS BUILT ON NOTHING LESS

BUT ON JESUS CHRIST"

(listen to the song below)
