Hope Series

I was sitting in church this morning and this poem came into my mind regarding Hope and the monologue from Lamentations 3.  So here it is:

And I Run

I am sitting here

tears rolling down my face

things getting thrown at me

hindering my pace

Yet I keep walking.

I am at the bottom

struggling to get up

my heart broken.

Beaten. Dead.

Yet I keep walking.

It hurts and it stings

I look up and my dreams

lie there, shattered.

Yet I keep walking.

I feel Him here by my side

in the darkness

I try to hide

He shines

I get up.

I grab His hand.

And I run.

So, that’s it.  We have all felt shattered, hopeless, in the dark with no where to go.  We have to remember this:

“God wants to take you from Hopeless to HOPEFUL!”  – Jeff Kapusta

Do not hesitate to reach up and grab His hand, the places He is going to take you are far beyond your wildest dreams.  He has great plans for you, YES, YOU!  Run with Him, run to Him, drown yourself in His word and in His presence, you will be a different person, a person full of HOPE!
