Why?

[suzie]

This is a great uplifting post angie.

I knew all about God all my life, however, there came a time when I grew weary of trying to drive my own life (mostly against a wall or into the ground) and realized I needed help. Even though I was "successful" by our world's standards, I was lacking miserably. I desired, really desired to know God because previously He was just a distant, judging being.  When God moved into my heart--and showed me just how much He loved me and moved in such a way that there is no doubt He not only exists but REIGNS SUPREME!! Awesome God.

Hope.

It's about hope. It's because humans have always failed me. It's because sickness, fear, and death are miserable realities of life and hope is what tells me that there is a place and time when these things will be gone. Hope. We can't know for sure, that's why it's called faith and that's why we hope. We can believe but that belief is based on hope.

Hope that in spite of my failures, in spite of my struggle to find complete faith, hope that what my father preached is true. Hope that He is there. That He is real.

Hope.
