So many questions crowd my mind.
I search for answers, but I find
the future filled with swirling mist,
except where Hope has gently kissed
the upper peaks and made them glow
just like a beacon and I know,
that somewhere, up ahead, there lies
a better day and clearer skies.

Hope is like a personal sun
that warms me still when day is done.
A steady light to show the way
and hover o'er me while I pray.
A guiding star, through every gale
that never blinks, will never fail.
Will carry me eventually
to that place where He waits for me.

Trillium,

As you have written, I do believe that Hope is like a guiding light for without Hope we would be in darkness.  There is alot of things that we can give up, but we can never give up Hope.

I hope you and yours have a blessed Easter,

Bob <><

Hope is right up there with the big three for without it would we look up to see grace?
