Linking up with Charlotte at Spiritual Sunday & Laura at Beholding Glory & Karen at Hallelujah Anyhow
We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope.”Martin Luther King, Jr.
Hope....to some it's a dangerous thing.....To others it's survival. Dangerous because the thing hoped for may never happen. Survival....because it's the thing that gives courage to keep holding on.
I know what it's like to flounder in the dark, to have no hope....but I also know what it's like to hold onto hope like a drowning person gripping onto a lifeline.
Hope is what kept me back from giving up..from letting go....from giving into the darkness. Hope was that crucial link that kept me hanging on when there wasn't anything else. And something amazing happened...the more I held onto hope...it slowly morphed into faith...a deep strong conviction....an inner knowing that what I desperately wanted.....would happen. I didn't know how....I just knew it would. I moved from thinking it might become reality to knowing that it was a definite.
And that faith eventually exploded into the miracle I needed. I learned hope transcends everything. It goes beyond all doubts....it silences fear....it quiets despair and more than that...no one can ever take it away.
There's a song that's inside of my soul.....It sings to me over and over again.
