From Joshua 1:9: “I hereby command you: Be strong and courageous; do not be frightened or dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”
Challenges rolling in
On waves of ceaseless tides
Searching for faithful hope
Jesus shall be thy guide
Universe seems empty
Darkness never takes rest
Seeking encouragement
Jesus hears each request
Faith walking toward light
Hope growing from His love
Filling heart with fresh grace
Jesus comes from above
Optimism descending
Day’s outlook shining bright
Finding encouragement
Jesus shares trusted light
From Romans 15:5-6: “May the God of steadfastness and encouragement grant you to live in harmony with one another, in accordance with Christ Jesus, so that together you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.”

The only way to find happiness in the grind of life is to do so by faith.
From 2 Corinthians 5:6-7: “So we are always confident, even though we know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord—for we walk by faith, not by sight.”

Reading through the last four entries in my journal, God brought inspiration to bring this praise to Him. There entries provide the bulk of the this poem, along with a few selected writings of Apostle Peter. I hope this poem sustains hope in you during your daily journey. During Lenten season, we are reminded of the hope we receive through Jesus’ walk to an old rugged Cross.

With God’s truth leading us
Our faith growing each day
Fueled by our Lord above
Hope responds, let us pray
God guides with steadiness
Navigating our ship
Through ever-present storms
Safe on our Lord’s flagship
Life-giving hearts may hide
Our emotional selves
Yet, other times we find
God’s Word within ourselves
Sometimes, life proclaims
Our “red badge of courage”
Straight into inner souls
Our faith will encourage
Much like a frigid wind
Freezing our tender face
Life challenges us to bear
Torment covered by grace
Through our Father’s mercy
A new birth, a living hope
Jesus . . . Resurrection
Life viewed through His new scope

From 1 Peter 1:3-5: “Blessed be the God and Father our Lord Jesus Christ! By His great mercy He has given us a new birth into a living hope through the Resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, and into an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you, who are being protected by the power of God through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.”
