Hope

 

crocus in the snow




"May the God of HOPE fill you with all joy and peace
as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with
HOPE by the power of the Holy Spirit." (Romans 15:13)

Recently, my Rebecca snapped this shot of crocus blooming in a cold winter's snow. As a child, I remember Mother watching for those precious purple petals—hope for the coming spring. 

Beloved, have bitter winters of life rendered you hopeless? Watch for signs of the coming King and bloom in the warmth of the Lord's faithfulness—the trustworthy God of hope, joy, and peace!

"The LORD will be king over the whole earth. On that day there will be one LORD, and His name the only name." (Zechariah 14:9)
