For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what they already have? But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently. It was the edge of the day. The sun had set behind the hill and darkness was coming. But for the last few seconds the trees seem to have a golden, red spotlight on them. It was like they were praising God for the beautiful light as they would wait now for the morning light.
For me that light at the edge of darkness was a reminder to hope. It would be dark soon, a time when sight would be hard. We have times like that in our broken world. We also have a hope that will shine through darkness and brokenness. The light may not come exactly when we want it; but that is what hope is like. We have the love of Christ always there to give us hope at the edges as we wait patiently for the light. Prayer God of Hope Meet us today at the edges and shine your light on us as we hope in you. Amen
