Voice of Hope
Advent – Season of Hope
Who speaks to me? Someone I can trust? Will the words I hear withstand the test of time? Will they lead me to salvation–or despair?
Who do I hear speaking to me in my darkness, speaking words of comfort, of hope? I want so much to believe what I hear, but fear holds me back–fear based on past mistakes, fear based on caution. Dare I throw caution to the wind?
Still the voice persists, never growing weary, sometimes soft, sometimes strong, always loving, never giving up on me even when I am ready to give up on myself.
Dare I trust this Word? Dare I not trust?
It is I who say to you, “Fear not, I will help you.” Isaiah 41:13
