"Tikvah" ~ Hope



I give thanks that Our Lord is so very purposeful with every big or small choice He makes!

He wraps a "tikvah" through the most unlikely of people and for that I am so very thankful!

I was reading a wonderful book by Ann Voskamp - The Greatest Gift.  If you haven't purchased it for your family then do it now!  Give your family a wonderful Christmas gift!  The reading yesterday was on Rahab and the scarlet cord.  The actual name for the cord in Hebrew is Tikvah and it means hope!

Don't you love it?

I do!  Our Lord indeed wraps a love heart up for each one of us to unwrap.  It is our choice to choose to have hope or despair.  It is our choice to wake up in the morning knowing the mountain we will climb and pack the tikvah in our purses!  It is our choice to believe HIS WORDS that are filled with tikvah.

Today, what are you going to take in your purse?  How about a little tikvah instead of perhaps that lipstick that truly doesn't make near as much difference as a whole lot of hope does!  Let's decide to take with us what truly matters God and all He offers for our errands today and everyday.

Thank you Lord that indeed you are so very Mighty that every little detail absolutely fills us to the brim with hope and love!

Sweet blessings,
Debbie

It is amazing how all of these seemingly small things mentioned on the Bible have more meaning than we understand in English!
