As I continue to explore and discover hope, there are many things I could say and I even wrote an entire blog post for today already. However, I decided that instead of posting it, I just want to direct you to this blog post that I stumbled upon earlier today written by a woman named Myra. … Continue reading Hope {Day 18} – Back to Square One

Hope {Day 17} – LIGHT Part 2
I was hoping to put this up yesterday in continuation to Day 15's discussion about LIGHT but after fighting with my computer for entirely too long yesterday, I gave up. Thankfully, I was victorioius over my computer today and have this song, or the startings of one, to share: (Click the triangle to play.) This prayer asks God to… Continue reading Hope {Day 17} – LIGHT Part 2
Hope {Day 16} – I AM
Well, we’ve hit the halfway point. Sixteen days ago I set out to blog about hope for 31 days straight and I’ve been amazed at what I’ve discovered along the way: I’ve discovered how to give hope, even if that means just being present. I’ve discovered a wide range of situations that leave us searching… Continue reading Hope {Day 16} – I AM
Hope {Day 15} – LIGHT
It seems as if I have two parallel themes running in my life right now. For 15 days straight I’ve been blogging about HOPE. At the same time, God has been showing me a lot about LIGHT. I call them parallel themes, because hope and light seem to have a lot in common. Often we… Continue reading Hope {Day 15} – LIGHT
Hope {Day 14} – Hope Amidst Loneliness
Here’s a poem I wrote quite a while ago about those who find themselves struggling with loneliness and the hope found in God’s Word. I randomly stumbled upon it earlier today and thought I’d share.

Hope {Day 11} – “The Rest of the Story”
I remember moments sitting in the car as a little girl when mom would suddenly reach over and change the radio dial from whatever station it was on (normally one of the Christian radio stations) to KFDI, the country station in Wichita. She didn’t turn the station because of the music really;rather, mom knew that… Continue reading Hope {Day 11} – “The Rest of the Story”
Hope {Day 10} – Saying Goodbye with Hope
1 Thessalonians 4:13 “Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest, who have no hope.” This song is my prayer for all of those that I know and love who have recently lost loved ones. May… Continue reading Hope {Day 10} – Saying Goodbye with Hope
Hope {Day 9} – “Against All Hope”
Thinking about some of the high school kids that are in playoffs for sports in these coming weeks makes me think about my high school experience. Now, don’t get me wrong, I loved my high school and there were many things that our school was really good at (music, basketball, etc.)… but football just wasn’t… Continue reading Hope {Day 9} – “Against All Hope”
