Hope Sightings

Since HOPE is my word for the year, I'm on the lookout for HOPE embodied.

Sights that show HOPE.

Sounds that shout HOPE.

Experiences that depict HOPE.

If God cared enough to make leaves and flowers so intricate and beautiful and breathtaking ... then I'm pretty sure He was that much more interested in creating us to be intricate, beautiful and breathtaking.

I mean, really. He did this for us. Crazy love.

He could have done bland. Boring. Dull.

But not my God.

Genesis 1:11-12 says this ...

"And God said let the land produce vegetation.

AND IT WAS SO .... AND IT WAS GOOD."

And I say ... it IS good. And He didn't have to do that for us. But He did. He spoke the words. Breathing HOPE right smack dab in the middle of winter in the middle of Chicago for little old me.

Thanks, Lord. I will choose to place my HOPE in You!
