Hope!
Day 4 - Hope!
Without Hope! there is no
future. For that matter, there can be no present, for Hope! has brought us to
the now. By extrapolation, history, which was just an instant ago, the present,
and so quickly now has past, came to us only through Hope! for the future.
Hope! Is the desire for a
better tomorrow and the belief that it will, indeed, come to be so.
Lord! Each day help me strive
to be better than I was in my best time. I was thirsty and You slaked that
burning need. When I hungered, Your Grace satiated that terrible pang. In my
sorrow, belief and trust salved my wounded heart. Lost in desperate helplessness,
I found strength to continue when You so humbly carried me. In the good times
you celebrated in my glory, yet, I knew, it was Your Glory that lighted my way.
Together, we danced in achievement’s sweet music serenade. Embraced by Your
Loving arms, was I, when You bestowed on me, so undeserving, the angelic spouse
who has become as one with me in You. A Blessing greater than the Creation
given this lowly sinner with two children and again, four times, cherubs for me
to love and entertain. How? Lord! Can one man be so Blessed? So often? So
continuously? I know, Lord. By Faith! By Hope! Amen!
It is a far better intent
with which I do begin anew each dawn to perform aid and comfort to my fellow
man. And, I shall fall short, again, as have I so many times in past attempts.
Yet, the Hope! lives on, that this special day, just this one awesome time, I
may, in fact, in deed, in fruition, complete that good intent with enough
passion to, at last, accomplish some goal for another, to offer You deserving
Praise! Honor! Glory! And, to that: Amen!
My Lord! My God! When I in
Awesome Wonder…
Evil darkness stalked for a
time in all its ugly determination and caught me, after many years of struggle
and strife, which I rebuked in Your Son’s holy name, Jesus Christ, but wore me
down in health and, less importantly, in finance matters. With Your shining
glow from the Holy Spirit Grace, through the undeserving continued Blessing of
Jesus, the Christ, and with the Supreme Authority of the Father, this Deity,
this wondrous Holy Trinity led me to redemptive salvation. Hope! My Lord! Hope!
saved me once again.
Of all that I have given and
might yet bestow upon those I so love, the gift would be to ask my God to
instill in them that eternal flicker of light which will forever glow to high
noon sun intensity frustrating evil in all his devious manifestations when it
rears its demon head to come against Thy eternal will. Hope! My Lord! I ask
only for: Hope!
Your most humble servant, Lord, in Faith! And, in
eternal Hope! Amen!
