Hope

What is Hope?

Hope is the confidence that what God has promised will happen. If God said it, don't sweat it. He will do what He has promised. Hope provides me with this confidence: 

• That God will forgive all my sins, He will renew me
• He will give me peace in times of turmoil,
• He will heal my sickness and comfort my sorrows,
• He will fight for me,
• He will guide me, 
• He will protect me,
• He will strengthen me, 
• and He will care for me until all my fears are swallowed up by an undying faith in a God who is more that able to supply all my needs.

Faith believes that God is real, and hope is the confidence that He'll do what He said He will do. 

--taken from An Untroubled Heart; Micca Campbell

Psalms 91:1-4

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most high will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.

I will say of the Lord, "He is my refuge and my fortress, my God in whom I trust."

Surely He will save you from the fowler's snare and from the deadly pestilence.

He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge;

His faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.

Right now, I need to keep reminding myself that it is by His grace that I am here and saved. It is He who keeps me going everyday. It is He who supplies every single need in my life right now. I will keep at it. Move forward. There is HOPE.
