Hope.
A word that gives us life,
One that helps us when we’re in strife.
It inspires beliefs and dreams,
An emotion that should reign supreme.
Yet, we can find it so difficult to hope,
It’s so much easier to mope.
In a year that may be hurtful,
I hope we can learn to be hopeful.
When you start to feel down,
Believe you’re not on your own.
When anxiety creeps into your day,
Have hope that Jesus can keep it at bay.
When we lose loved ones,
May grief help us to cling for hope in Jesus.
When you’re unemployed,
Believe that your Father will provide.
When temptation hits in a moment of weakness,
Trust God to get you out of that darkness.
Your life and plans may be undecided,
God won’t leave you misguided.
Be strong and courageous,
For the Lord is with us.
No matter what this new century brings,
Hope in God will give you wings.
With God, you can do anything.
