SABBATH SNAPSHOTS: HOPE

12/2/12 Have spent much time in prayer lately for folks who are in hard places. From the end of Psalm 33 and on into Psalm 34, I have found "hope" in the scriptures----because "the eyes of the Lord are on those who fear him, on those whose hope is in his unfailing love.....
Even book-lovin' folks in Memphis can donate to  give hope to a  bookstore in Brooklyn NY. that lost its  entire inventory in Hurricane Sandy. Thanks to Booksellers for spearheading that effort!

Purple is such a royal color---perfect reminder of the "King" who was born.
Even among the dangling wires that pump those chemo drugs into needy bodies, there was hope---right there in the middle of the clinic for all to see!
A great "decoration of hope"
We wait in hope for the Lord;
    he is our help and our shield. 
In him our hearts rejoice,
    for we trust in his holy name.
May your unfailing love be with us, Lord,
    even as we put our hope in you. (Psalm 33:20-22)
