Walk With Me

 

Ironically, my blog’s name repeatedly reminds me that the journey of my life is full of hope, whether I can sense it or not.

“And hope does not put us to shame,
because God’s love has been poured into our hearts
through the Holy Spirit
who has been given to us.”
(Romans 5:5)

God drew me to Himself.

He enabled me to believe in Jesus to save me from my sin.

I am His adopted child, and I inherit all the privileges of being the King’s daughter.

As I abide in Him, He abides in me, and through Him I can do good works.

And I am continually reminded that my flesh avails nothing, but His Spirit gives life.

This hope will not disappoint.

So I am taking courage today. When I sit in darkness, the Lord will be a light to me. I will take His strength. His joy. I will trust His inscrutable purposes. I will walk in the only safe path – the path of duty. Duty that earns nothing and avails nothing, but flows out of the life given to me by the Spirit.

Walk with me in hope.
