My Hope is Found in You, Lord … My Living Hope

Posted by Nan Jones | Dec 8, 2024 | Uncategorized |

Father, there is no god besides You — none can compare! And the amazing thing is that, even though You are magnificent, awesome in power, and the Most High God, You call us precious in Your sight. Your love gives me hope because I know no matter what I face, I don’t face it alone. You walk with me into my tomorrows … You are my living hope.

Your love gives me courage. And peace. And strength to endure the trials that permeate this fallen world. Thank You, Lord, for the promise of Your abiding presence.

Father, show me Your truths. I want to know You in Your fullness — all that You are. I want to walk in the light of Your glory all the days of my life — to behold Your beauty, to recognize Your majesty, to know Your touch. Prepare my heart to receive Your peace and let it reign in my life.

I want my heart to be a welcoming dwelling place for You and a safe haven for those who are hurting. I want Your peace to overflow through me into their lives. People need You, Lord.

Father, You are Jehovah-Shalom, the Lord my peace. I know of Your sovereignty — I appreciate Your sovereignty. Understanding that You have complete authority over all things is a great comfort to me. Help me look to You at all times and remember that You are God.

There are days when I insist on taking matters into my own hands … as if I know better. It’s ridiculous, I know.

A Reflection of Grace on the Forest’s Edge

The aged apple tree stretched toward the heavens with its thin, finger-like branches. It grew on the forest’s edge surrounded by pine, oak, and hemlocks — growing despite its conditions, which was quite obviously a happenstance, a surprise to its forest shadows … a reflection of God’s goodness and grace.

And now, as autumn has its last hoorah before winter’s chill, my eye saw something new …
