HOPE

My word for the year 2017 is hope.  I face this year with more confidence in God than I ever thought possible.  The truths that I have been taught all my life I am getting a grasp on.  One morning as I had my quiet time …. I got it!  I am God’s daughter,  and fully acceptable because I have been redeemed by the blood of Jesus Christ.  I was writing in my prayer journal when I looked down at my hand holding the pen; my thought was “Will you look at that!”  “The hand of a King’s daughter”. I thought of President Trumps daughter, Ivanka … how beautiful she is; how her father adores her; how conscious she is of how her behavior reflects on her Dad.  WOW … Since I am the daughter of a King how much more important is it for me to be conscious of how my actions and reactions reflect on my Father.  Above all things remembering how adored I am by my “King Father”.  And I love him so much, “it takes my breath away”.  Usually it manifest itself in tears as I feel His arms embrace me through the highs and lows of life.
