Greetings Dear Reader,
One of the byproducts of too little good is too little
hope. So often the world seems weary and
worn to me. It seems old, tired, and
dusty. It feels “thin, sort of
stretched, like butter scraped over too much bread.”
The world needs hope.
When we live out the love and compassion of the Gospel can build
hope. When we deal in grace and kindness
we can provide hope. When we care for
the social needs of others in practical ways we can give hope.
Hope is the fuel that gets us to good, better, and
best. Hope is the engine that can drive
us down the path when it seems we cannot go on any further. Hope is what can push us past pain and
suffering. Hope is what keeps sorrow and
loss from consuming us.
I must give others reason to hope. I must set an example. I must show love and kindness. I must be patient and humble. I must follow Christ as closely as possible
so that I maintain my own hope.
What I most need to remember is that in Christ alone is hope
that endures. In Christ alone is hope
found.
Wishing you joy in the journey,
Aramis Thorn
Mat 13:52 So Jesus said to them, "That is why every writer
who has become a disciple of Christ’s rule of the universe is like a home
owner. He liberally hands out new and old things from his great treasure
store.”
