Take this moment…

To recall your many feelings of despair.  Are you terrified by the events in our world?  Are your valley experiences making it a difficult time to remember God?  Terrorism, the vengeance of others’ hatred, and diseases are now common-place.  As the world tosses about in confusion, call out to God in faith.  We never know what good He will bring out of a seemingly hopeless situation.

From this day forward…

Remember to never build your hope on earthly plans.  Focus on God’s faithfulness in the past and you can face every crisis with hope.  May the God of Hope fill you with joy and peace as you place your trust in Him.

Psalm 71:5
