So be strong and courageous, all you who put your hope in the Lord! Psalm 31: 24 NLT

God is always with us! He provides for our needs. He fights our battles and arms us with STRENGTH. He makes us stronger than before and gives us desire to remain faithful. He helps us release worry and doubt.  

We will experience difficult days. But God wants us to remember we don’t have to handle them alone! He allows us to witness the power of His LOVE and experience how it feels to be held by His holiness. 

The Bible says, Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take. Proverbs 3: 5-6 NLT

As we discover His power and STRENGTH, we learn to TRUST the One who knows what we need. GOD takes care of His children. He places HOPE in our hearts and reminds us who is working for GOOD.  

HOPE is defined as "the desire and search for a good future." Jeremiah 29:11 says, For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a HOPE. We mustn’t fear what happens next. God will guide and provide.  

As we journey together, He will help us “occupy hopefulness” as we walk with Jesus and follow where we’re led. He will bring PEACE to our souls and help us see how FAITH hold us together. He will reveal His will when the timing is right and watch over us forever…

God, thank you for Your everlasting love. Help us remember who’s in charge of our days. Open our hearts and prepare us for what’s to come as we "occupy HOPEFULNESS!” Thank you for ALL You provide. You fight our battles and help us overcome. Thank you for knowing what we NEED every moment of our lives. We will be faithful and love YOU forever…Thank you, Lord! Amen

~Family and friends, Have a good day ahead! May the God who gives hope fill you with great joy. May you have perfect peace as you trust in Him. May the power of the Holy Spirit fill you with hope. Romans 15: 13
