Uncertainty

I know the thoughts that I think toward you

Yet To Be #193

The old year exits while a new one enters.
The future holds promise, disappointment, sorrow, or joy.
Uncertainty looms large.
We bow blinded by the experiences of the past.
Toil to seek the best possible outcome as we stumble aimlessly in the dark.
Yet, there is hope.
Hope which rises, not compressed, not stamped out.
It stands eternal in our hearts.
Anticipation brightens the eyes and lightens the path.
When there is hope, there is life.
When there is life, there is God, the Master, the Creator, our heavenly Father.

For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. (KJV) or to give you a future and a hope. (ESV) Jeremiah 29:11

there is no stepping backwards, always moving ahead…

#19 of 31 It Will Come part 2

Hope is not now, but it is for the future.

If we have what we want, we do not have hope.

We do not need to have expectations, anticipation or to even look for hope because it is here.

When we look to the future with the eyes of hope, we look with optimism for the brightest and the best.

There is no stepping backwards, always moving ahead to the next stop with a full heart.

A heart that does not condemn, a soul that is right and a mind that is excited, because we know it will come.

“But if we hope for that we see not then do we with patience wait for it.” Romans 8 verse 25

“Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” Hebrews 11 verse 1
