Let’s fill Facebook with hope this week. The GRACE of God is bringing light into darkness, hope to the hopeless, healing to the sick, and peace to the panicking. I challenge you, Church: spread hope with intentionality. Now is the time for us to shine, and to overwhelm the negativity around us with God’s good word. #graceunlimited2020 #lethopearise #hope #healing #faith https://www.instagram.com/p/B94eQLHHLAa/?igshid=1j5tbhv0066wp

Don't be so hard on yourself today. Know that you are loved by the good Father. Have grace for yourself. Smile. Laugh. Let hope arise.

Let Hope arise. I am unsure of what the future holds. And in these uncertain times, fear creeps in and lodges itself somewhere between my stomach and my heart. Do I walk the road less traveled? Had you asked me in middle school, without hesitation, I would have said yes. But as the years pass and as expectations accumulate upon my shoulders, the pause before answering grows longer. Can I walk the road well? What exactly is needed to walk this road? Are there any special degrees or qualifications to walk down this path? Years ago, when I was more ambitious in my workout regiment, I planned to run at least 5 miles every day. I bought special sneaks to complement the overpronation in my feet, an armband to hold my iPod, earbuds that wouldn't fall out midrun. I made a bomb playlist with upbeat songs to hype me up throughout the run. But then the day came to actually running. I had forgotten - I don't actually like running. I spent more time preparing for the run than actually running. There are no special qualifications needed to walk the path less traveled. The only requirement is to step one foot in front of the other. If needed, fashion a walking stick from a fallen branch around you. Engrave it with encouragements and reminders of why you chose to take the path less traveled. It will prove a great companion while scaling the mountains before you.

And endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us. Romans 5:4-5
