Yet To Be #37

faithful companion of Confidence

The Need For Hope

colorful, Landscape Wallpapers HD / Desktop and Mobile ...

The need for hope lights a fire within our soul;

A burning desire that transports us from one moment to the next with the confidence of knowing our goal, our prize, our reward is closer still.

While hoping, we can never expire like that of Lot’s wife caught between the wish and longing.

No, for with hope we are always compelled to press onward, never looking back, always moving forward to a better place from whence we came.

In hope, our steps are made sure and safe;

Our hearts are made fat with strength and purpose so to withstand the fickleness of the mind.

Because Hope, the faithful companion of Confidence, can never fail;

Is never lonely;

Can never be contrite.

And never gives into despair.

“but we glory in tribulations also; knowing that tribulation works patience; and patience, experience; and experience, hope; and hope makes not ashamed.” Romans 5 verses 3 and 4

Under the name Francis Lee, I write interracial Christian romantic suspense. My stories are about finding enduring love when hope and redemption seem unattainable as danger lurks around every corner. My characters learn that where there is darkness, "joy will always come in the morning".

  1. It is true. Do not give in to the worries. I trust and put my hope in the True and Living GOD, Who makes us not ashamed.
