"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house." Matthew 5:14-15

"Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it." Matthew 13:45-46

Hope in the Lord

Welcome! If you happen to be stopping by because you read my post on Stitches Thru Time, I'm glad you decided to stop by for a visit.

I did a quick search on Biblegateway.com using the word hope and Lord and came up with 28 different verses - 11 which are in Psalms. Here are a sampling.

Be strong and courageous,
all you who put your hope in the Lord.

Psalm 31:24

I put my hope in You, Lord;
You will answer, Lord my God.

Psalm 38:15

For I know the plans I have for you”—this is the Lord’s declaration—“plans for your welfare, not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. You will call to Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you.
Jeremiah 29:11-12

For You are my hope, Lord God,
my confidence from my youth.

Psalm 71:5

I'm so thankful that we can hope in the Lord, and He promises to be with us if we are one of His followers. 

I'm thankful today for the hope God gives me. What can you praise Him for?
