I want to encourage everyone that hope is here.  This world is hitting believers very hard, and I am hearing moments of discouragement from many.  I am here to provide hope and to say stay the course—the journey is worth the fight!

I am hopeful, living in the moment, knowing that Jesus has my back.  Worry and stress are not part of my life because I have given control to Jesus.  I live each day with inner peace, striving to love others more than myself.  

Being thankful and prayerful gives me hope and the right perspective to carry me through each day.  I am purposeful about reminding myself of all the good in my life.  

I leave no time to think about anything negative.  It serves no purpose in my life.  If I am challenged to do something seemingly negative, I find the light in the situation.  There is always light if you are purposeful in searching.  

Going about my day being thankful and prayerful, searching for the light in every situation sets me up to live with love.  I don’t go through life talking to everyone I meet about love and joy.  I simply set out to move through my day with love and compassion.  Thinking about others before thinking about my own needs.  I am thankful and prayerful, living in the moment, and doing so with love.

There are times when I fail, but I quickly change course and regain my perspective of compassion for all.  Forgiveness is something I know well and ask for often.  Despite good intentions, I make mistakes.  I am able to move forward because I ask for and give forgiveness.  And because I never lose hope.

With forgiveness and love comes trust.  Trusting Jesus and his path for me and trusting those I love.  When it comes to Jesus, my faith does not waiver nor does my trust.  I stay hopeful despite all the chaos in my life.   

Taking Jesus with me everywhere, I am hopeful. Leaving all worries behind and living with love and inner peace.
