The Lord God hath given me the tongue of the learned,

that I should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary..." (Isaiah 50:4)

          Be strong and take heart, all you who hope in the LORD.~ Psalm 1:24

          Hope begins in the dark, the stubborn hope that if you just show up and try to do

          the right thing, the dawn will come. You wait and watch and work: you don't give up.

                                                                    ~ Anne Lamott

    Lord I have put my hope in your word. ~ Psalm 119:74

          Hope dies last but is first to be resurrected from the ashes.~ Leonid S. Sukhorukov

  

     I hope you never lose your sense of wonder and

     you get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger.    

     May you never take one single breath for granted.
     God forbid love ever leave you empty handed. 
     I hope you still feel small when you stand by the ocean. 
     Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens 
     promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance. 
 
     And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance, I hope you dance. 
 
     I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance 
     Never settle for the path of least resistance. 
     Living might mean taking chances but they're worth taking. 
     Lovin' might be a mistake but it's worth making. 
     Don't let some hell bent heart leave you bitter. 
     When you come close to selling out ...reconsider. 
     Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance. 
 
     And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance 
     I hope you dance ~ song by Lee Ann Womac

          Hope sees the invisible, feels the intangible and achieves the impossible. ~ Charles Caleb Colton

I         If it were not for hopes, the heart would break. ~ Thomas Fuller             

          There is surely a future hope for you, and your hope will not be cut off. ~ Psalm 23:18

          If you lose hope, somehow you lose the vitality that keeps life moving, you lose that courage to be,

          that quality that helps you go on in spite of it all.  And so today I still have a dream.  ~ Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr
