Where There is Hope

"Where there is hope there's a way."

These words came to me yesterday when I saw a photo of a rainbow in an on-line devotional I was reading.  This is a photo I took in 2012 while on vacation on Martha's Vineyard.  For 10 minutes everyone outside the restaurant we'd just left stood in silent awe. . . .  

Going to God

"Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you."  -1 Peter 5:7

Whom Do You Serve?

"He makes me lie down in green pastures, He leads me beside quiet waters." 

-Psalm 23:2

Knowing Jesus

"I must know Jesus Christ as Saviour before His teaching has any meaning for me other than that of an ideal which leads to despair." --Oswald Chambers

In today's Our Daily Bread, Amy Peterson told about a daily practice she started with her children at bedtime.  They light a candle, and asking God to light their way, they get out their journals and draw or write answers to these two questions. . . 

Joy of the Lord

"Let your gentleness be evident to all.  The Lord is near."  -Philippians 4:5

Help for the Helpless

"You show that you are a letter from Christ, the result of our ministry, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts."  2 Corinthians 3:3
