May 2008 I reached an exciting milestone in life. I had finally graduated from college and I could start my career as a teacher. There were times during this pursuit that the finish line seemed to get farther away rather than closer, and when the day finally came that I actually crossed that finish line,I felt a great sense of relief and happiness! I had done it!!
The Saturdays spent behind closed doors working on paper after paper was finally over! The thought of never having to write another paper made me extremely happy and yet here I am, 12 years later, longing to be behind closed doors so that I can write. Only God can take something that you use to dread and turn it into a passion!
God has given us all some sort of “voice” to share the hope that He has to offer. Some can use their literal voice to speak or sing, while others use some other art form. In this season of life, mine seems to be writing.
I do not write and share because I have all the answers. I write and share to point to the answer! Jesus is that answer! In every season He is always the answer! That’s the purpose of Highlighting Hope- writing to make known the living hope that Jesus offers us everyday!
The hope that God gives is breathtakingly beautiful and it offers life. The hope that God gives completely captivates the heart and, once you learn of it, it becomes your heart’s overflow. Today, I pray that you find your heart overflowing with hope! 💖
