As with my past five words, they have just come to me. When "hope" came to me, I had to wonder, "Why had this never come to me before?" My favorite scripture is this one:
It's even a song that is sung as the benediction in my hometown church each Sunday. Here is the refrain: And He will raise you up on eagles' wings
Bear you on the breath of dawn
Make you to shine like the sun
And hold you in the palm of His hand.
Once the word had come to me, I began to see it everywhere!
So, "Hope" it is!
- Hope for our world
- Hope for our country(we're a hot mess!)
- Hope for families who are struggling
- Hope for our sweet children, the future of our world!
- Hope for healing
- Hope for love
- Hope for compassion and understanding on so many fronts
- Hope for job security for those who are looking
- Hope for stability
- Hope for calm in the chaos that is life
- Hope for those who are hurting
And the list goes on and on....
Hope is important because:
- It motivates us.
- It strengthens or mental and physical health
- It infuses joy into our lives
- Hope allows us to have healthy relationships
- It fosters a sense of humor
- Hope allows us to learn from and move through past setbacks
- It opens our eyes to opportunities
- Hope heals us
- Hope fights fear
- Hope helps others
So, here we go,2023! HOPE
