Hope Rising
Renewal & Hope
Scripture
“And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost.”
— Romans 5:5 (KJV)
Reflection

They steady the heart in the storm. They give the soul something true to hold. Take this promise as your own today. Whisper it. Pray it. Believe it. The God who spoke it does not lie.

Prayer
Father, You are the God of hope. Fill me with joy and peace as I trust You, and let hope rise in me. Amen.
