Hope

I hope this isn't a tease.
I hope you're not just testing me.
I hope this is real.

I have so much hope right now.
But I need to turn this hope into trusting you, Lord.
I need to trust you in this, in everything.

I feel so undeserving.
Yet, I know you are preparing me.
I just hope this isn't a tease.


I'll trust you, Lord.
I'm trusting you.

"Now is your time. Become, believe, try. Walk closely with people you love, and with other people who believe that God is very good and life is a grand adventure. Don’t spend time with people who make you feel like less than you are. Don’t get stuck in the past, and don’t try to fast-forward yourself into a future you haven’t yet earned. Give today all the love and intensity and courage you can, and keep traveling honestly along life’s path."
