Hope

Where Does One Go To Find Hope?

 If you look closely at the picture you will see the word HOPE written in the sand.  Or do you?  At first glance, you instinctively know that the photographer was trying to capture the essence of the word hope.  But yet the photographer did not completely capture "HOPE" in the frame.  Part of the word is fleeting.
 

When a person's heart is crying for help that person is in desperate need of hope.  When that person does not have a relationship with God they will not first look to the Bible for their answers.  Because that person does not have access to a personal relationship with God and His wisdom, then that person can never have genuine hope. 

Filling one's life with self-help books, counseling, resources, advice, etc and NEVER going to the Author of hope is like an incomplete picture.  Sure, each of those things can alleviate some of the pain and anguish that a person is feeling, but they will never allow a person to know and experience genuine hope. 

My hope is in the Lord Who gave Himself for me!

Do you know the One who can offer true hope?  If not, please seek out someone today who can show you how to begin a personal relationship with God.  If you don't know anyone who has a personal relationship with God, then please contact me.  I would be more than happy to show you my Lord and what he has done, not only for me but for you too!
