Hopes

 3


Love, I expected you to leave me with death,
but you left me the miraculous gift of hopes.

this truly opened my eyes and i have said it to myself several times over, realizing that my hopes are nearly buried- not a good thing. but your simple and powerful expression made me rethink my position!

And until death is taken away permanently as promised in the scriptures... “He will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”—Revelation 21:4.

(1 Corinthians 15:26)...As the last enemy, death is to be brought to nothing...

1 Corinthians 15:54... then the saying will take place that is written: “Death is swallowed up forever.”

This saying is found in the book of Hosea 13:14 “From the hand of She′ol I shall redeem them; from death I shall recover them. Where are your stings, O Death? Where is your destructiveness, O She′ol? . . .

Isaiah 25:8 He will actually swallow up death forever, and the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will certainly wipe the tears from all faces...

Your personal copy of the may or may not have the English version of God's name in it...the point is that God Almighty has promised it.

Hope is what you do not yet posses. Because if you have it there is no longer a need to hope for it.

The scriptures tell us it is impossible for God to lie...so we continue to hope for this day when death will be no more.

...Until then we can write beautiful poems of hope...very nice Me Ho.
I'm enjoying this series too...the collection of all of your "I" poems is going to make a great publication.

Hi every one.. thanks a lot for your comments...

You are absolutely right Tia, Hope is no where to be seen that is why we still hope for it.
