The love of God has been poured out
within our hearts through
the Spirit who enlivens us.
...
Hope
Just as total darkness
can't hold back
the light of a tiny flame,
...
Open your eyes.
Open your heart.
It is winter but it is like spring.
...
We have a baby
Look, he is here.
He is happy.
...
Raising his hands,
he offered himself
to the Father till
the end of the ages
...
Whoever goes into
these hidden poverties
of our lives with
hope in the Lord
...
The little pockets
of hope, glimmers
of joy and infusion
of encouragement
...
I want to thank you, good God,
for the joy that fills my mind,
for the faith that leads me to you,
...
Just as they became
imitators of both
Paul and Christ,
...
Just a grain of
hope lightens,
in the midst
of all despair.
...
Hope is not what you'd expect.
It is what you would never dream.
Hope is a seemingly improbable story.
...
The prayers of those who believe
stand in the midst of hardship
to shine brightly against the darkness.
