Hope: To desire something with some confidence of fulfillment. A desire supported by some confidence in its fulfillment. A ground for expectation. To look forward. Expectation. Confidence. Anticipation. "Be joyful in hope..." Romans 12:12 "I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit." Romans 15:13 "..my hope is in you all day long." Psalm 25:5b

Sick and Tired, yet Hopeful (You Tube Attack)
Watching News. I am sick and tired of seeing the clips of the girls who attacked and the other and filmed it with the intent of placing it on the net for viewing. The whole ordeal is wrong. The whole ordeal is sickening and troubling. I have no desire to see it anymore. I am hopeful because I have spoken to teens, parents, and other leaders who recognize that this is wrong, evil, hurtful and very unhealthy. We also were able to admit that we have hurt people with words and silence. We were able to admit that when we have hurt and hurt people it is wrong. Yet we have learned and are learning to live in Christ. We are learning to move past and away from hurting people and God and live in blessing others as God has blessed us. It is hopeful, encouraging, and a privilege to visit, serve and live with people who are thinkers, learners and who are growing in Jesus Christ.
