...hope...

There's a point in your life when holding on to a hope that you have created for yourself, or held onto with a strength that was never meant to hold a hope...and at that point when there seems to a crater in your path...there is One that is asking so much for you to just take a breath...and let His strength take over...

Ya it seems extremely easy to say and honestly it seems way like hoping in something unseen or, in our minds, impossible...but the sense of freedom that consumes your heart and your mind at that moment of total surrender cannot be described by words in my opinion. At that point of totally openness of the heart and vulnerability of the heart is where the God who has already conquered this can totally rap a hand around you and say "It's going to be ok, I love you". Of course I can't say exactly what He'll say, but I think the point is pretty obvious. Words like this, to us, from a Creator that gives us a heart to love, a hand to hold, and a rock solid hope to hold onto, can take the weakest, destroyed, beaten down, and twisted heart and make something beyond beautiful, beyond what our word "happy" means....I think the better word is COMPLETE....

Our God has such an incredible plan for our future and our purpose...greater than anything we can even hope to dream for...and that is something that we can hold on to.
