I can remember when my doctor, at 16, told me that “I probably would not have children.”  Looking at it today, it makes me laugh.  Five of them with two that we miscarried and all of them incredible testimonies to the God of the universe.

God decides the path of our lives.

He alone.

And He does it in a way that blesses us to the core of our being.

But we must have faith.

As far as a title, I guess I will call this “Seeing It Before It Is Part 2”.

The spring has humbled me in many ways.  There are new challenges and new disappointments.  There are new misunderstandings and new mountains to climb.

The hills and valleys of life can be very discouraging.

But I again reach back to Faith.

Hebrews 1 1 Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. 

And this is just it.  We must be sure of what we hope for … and sometimes hope is so removed that we can’t even get half way to faith.  And so the word for today is to:  Be SURE of what you hope for.  It is to be sure of it until Jesus removes it from your dashboard and tells you to go for something else.

This is a simple word but an important one.

David knew this in his prayers and times with God.  His prayer in Psalm 18 is one that I say repeatedly.  It is hope for the day.

Psalm 18 1 I love you, O LORD , my strength.  

2 The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge.  He is my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.  3 I call to the LORD , who is worthy of praise, and I am saved from my enemies.

Go forward in hope.  Go forward in faith.  Go forward with Jesus.  And be sure of what you hope for “it” until He moves you on to something else.    

In The Name of the Father and the 

Son and the Holy Spirit.  Amen.
