“The only trap I must beware not to fall into, is to think that each day is the same as the next. In fact, each morning brings with it a hidden miracle, and we must pay attention to this miracle.” – Paulo Coelho, Warrior of the Light
Everyday is a miracle. We just don’t know it yet. We just can’t see it yet. But when the eyes of our hearts are truly opened, then we can finally see what God has in store for us each day.
The flowers see it and they blossom. The birds taste it in their flight and express it in their songs.
Are we not more valuable than they?
“…hope returns when I remember this one thing: The Lord’s unfailing love and mercy still continue, Fresh as the morning, as sure as the sunrise. The Lord is all I have, and so in him I put my hope.” – Lamentations 3:21-24
The thing about hope is that it’s a positive force that shines the most when it’s dark. When everything’s going well, we hardly notice it’s there. But when things go against us, when our dreams fade and when we see no immediate reprieve from our troubles, that’s when hope does its best work for us.
