words of hope

A friend framed and gifted me with these words 2 years ago... and they are worthy of mention and inspiring others, again and again:

HOPE

is courage and joyfulness in God!
(Martin Luther, rephrased)

is that thing with feathers that perches in the soul 
and sings the tune without the words 
and never stops... at all.
Emily Dickinson

is faith holding out its hand in the dark.
George Iles

is putting faith to work
when doubting would be easier.
Author Unknown

is patience with the lamp lit.
Tertullian

May the God of hope
fill you with all joy and peace 
as you trust in him,
so that by the power of the Holy Spirit
you may overflow with 
hope.
Paul, Romans 15:13
