There is Hope

Today’s Scripture:  “For there is hope for a tree, if it be cut down, that it will sprout again, and that its shoots will not cease. Though its root grow old in the earth, and its stump die in the soil, yet at the scent of water it will bud and put out branches like a young plant. But a man dies and is laid low; man breathes his last, and where is he? Job  4:17-10

Song To meditate on: There is Hope – Mark Lowry (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMckD0yk0YA)

There is a famous Latin saying- dum vita est spes est - while there is life; there is hope. It means that as long as you live, there is hope of improvement so you should not give up.

The scripture above tells us that there is hope for a tree, even though it has been cut down. Just recently I passed a dry tree stump, however there was a lush bunch of dark green leaves on it that caught my attention. I figured this tree was cut down but because it was watered it started springing again.

Sometimes you find yourself in situations where you feel so beaten. You just want to throw in the towel and give up, but ladies be encouraged, once you have life there is hope of a way out. Like the plant you can bud again. You can bud again but you have to believe - you have to believe that what God has started in you will be perfected. You have to believe in yourself knowing that where there is a will, there is a way.

Don’t be discouraged, your future is not determined by your past. No matter what you are going through at this time, no matter what setbacks have come your way, your future can be a good one. Proverbs promises us “Surely there is a future, and your hope will not be cut off.”

Today ladies, thank God that you’re alive because all you need is to have brathe in your body to bounce back.

Have A God Filled Day Ladies
