The scriptures
are prayers from Psalms.
For you, O Lord,
are my hope, my trust, O Lord from my youth.
Psalm 71:5
And now, O Lord,
what do I wait for? My hope is in you. Psalm 39:7
Recently,
Kimberly Arms Shirk came to Eastridge's Book Group and talked about the book
she wrote-"Remote Fears & Silver
Linings." Kim was severely burned
and nearly killed by a electrical line when she was reporting a story. She survived and went through many surgeries
and treatments. She has a list of Silver
Linings at the end of
her book. The first one is: "Believe. Belief brings hope and hope
brings life." The dictionary says
that Believe is to have religious conviction and Belief is confidence and
trust. Through her book she
expressed her belief and conviction and expressed hope in God. She talked about
praying and answered prayers
and her hope in God.
After reading
this book, I thought, have I always placed my hope in God when life takes me to
dark times?
Ask yourself the
same question!
Prayer:Read the 2
scriptures at the beginning of the devotion and hold them in your heart.
