Hope Rises - Prophets & Kings; Tim Knipp




Deepest hopes.
Deepest fears.
Dread drives us
like a strong wind,
blowing our hopes
into crannies
and culverts
and down sewer drains.
The Living God blows life
into the seeds
of hope,
restoring what is lost
and even
reanimating 
dead flesh.
Wonder of wonders!
Billboards spring up:
"It happened HERE! (x2)!!!"
"O Death, Where is your sting?"

Hope rises
and conquers dread
resoundingly.

I can trust Jesus
in the face
of what I most fear. -- T. Knipp

2 Kings 4; Luke 7
