Words & Whispers

I hear the Lord say:

Hope is more than wishful thinking. Hope is a seeking, a longing, a conviction, that a brighter future is coming. Hope is trusting in Me when life’s circumstances look bleak. Hope is standing in faith and in the promises of My word for today and for tomorrow. Hope is restful assurance that your Heavenly Father is in charge and is moving on your behalf. Reading Scripture verses on ‘hope’ and ‘faith’ will bolster your spirits. You will rise each morning with joy and calm assurance that each day brings you closer to Me, closer to victory, closer to viewing life with the mind of Christ. There is good reason to hope. In times of doubt, worry or confusion, look up and look at the truth of My Word. Your hope will blossom and bloom, giving off a fragrance of joy and peace that blesses others as well as yourself. Hope in Me. Trust in Me. You are mine. I care for you and send My Holy Spirit to encourage, comfort and protect.

“Why are you cast down, O my soul, and why are you in turmoil within me?

Hope in God; for I shall again praise him,

my salvation and my God.

Psalm 42:11 ESV
