Spring = Hope


I am LOVING the beautiful weather we have been having. It makes me feel such a desire to improve myself; to set goals and believe in myself that I can actually accomplish whatever I set my mind to. I know I CAN accomplish anything, if I do my absolute best, then trust in the Lord to make up the difference. It makes me feel an overwhelming sense of peace because for me spring-time equals hope. So, here are some hope filled verses and quotes to brighten your day!


Lamentations 3:26


26 It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the Lord.

Jeremiah 17:7


7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is.

Psm. 43: 5

5 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.


...................



Psm. 146: 5

5 Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the Lord his God...

Dieter F. Uchtdorf :

"Hope is not knowledge, but rather the abiding trust that the Lord will fulfill His promise to us. It is confidence that if we live according to God’s laws ... we will receive desired blessings in the future. It is believing and expecting that our prayers will be answered. It is manifest in confidence, optimism, enthusiasm, and patient perseverance..."
