This post is dedicated to you for taking that brave step ahead, know that you're not alone.
They say that what we call hope is often wishing more than hoping.
But blibical hope differs, it acts on the conviction that god will complete the work He has begun.
Even when the circumstances opposes it.
Hope is reliance on the grace of god in the face of death
Hope is living constantly, patiently, expectantly, resiliently,
joyously in the efficacy of the word of god.
Hope is buying into what we believe in, not withdrawing
simply because the situation is too complex for us to handle.
Of course its far easier to dwell in the past and live in despair,
because in doing so, we don't need to risk anything or do anything.
But if we choose to live in hope, we must go against the stream.
We must take bold steps forward, we must struggle and
withstand the pain as the potter molds us.
We cannot yet tell, what lies at the end of this road, this ardous journey
But with hope from god, we journey on for He has been faithful
and we know in our hearts and minds that He indeed will do us no harm
So take a day at a time, another step as He leads knowing that one day
You'll know why, and looking back
Acknowledging that His grace was indeed sufficient for you.

hmm..why is 'god' not capitalised, but 'He' is?
lol
cause i'm not "big" on grammar? But if i really had to give a reason for my unintentional doings..i would say, cause when we say "God", there is in my world at least..only one (so it doesn't really matter whether its capitalize or not)..where as if "he" wasn't capitalize..it could mean any random male..(you for example :P)
hmm ic
but 'god' often gives the impression that you are referring to something/someone who is taking the place of the one and only God.
Like an idol.
so it can be misinterpreted.
:)
point taken...so i guess labeling the post "Christianity" still introduces ambiguity. I guess i'll have to spell check more thoroughly now, won't i? =P
:D yeps. xD
