Our Hope is in the Lord, Who made Heaven and earth! Fear is the opposite of Hope... Fear holds us in bondage and Hope liberates and frees us! Fear is rooted in a lie while Hope is Grounded in the Truth! The truth is that we are not called to live in the past but in the Present, being aware of the Grace and Mercy of God! We can NEVER let our past failures or sins define us! We have all made mistakes in the past... but We are NOT a mistake! We can't change the past but we can make decisions in the present moment that are in keeping with our relationship with God. We must put our Trust in Him NOT in our fear! We must keep our eyes on Christ! As we grow in our relationship with God through Love and Hope, then the Strength of the bondage of that fear will be eradicated as "perfect Love casts out ALL fear"! Love and Hope tether us to Heaven...Hang on tightly and Be NOT afraid! Love and prayers! ✝️
