The Proverbial Sunrise- Hope



My hope is built on nothing less
than Jesus Christ, my righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
but wholly lean on Jesus' name: I have always loved that song, filled with such beautiful truth. Jesus is my life, my only hope. If I take my eyes off of Him, I begin to quickly sink , like the Titanic. But, if I hold strong to my Anchor, never letting my feet slip off the Solid Rock, I can face any storms that come my way. My hope is in Jesus, yesterday, today, and forever.

Bless you Denise & let us keep on HOPE built & anchored in Jesus Christ!

Precious & true ...your words & your heart! Singing along with you & Leslie...anyone else in this choir?

(hey Denise, write me an email if you'd like to post YouTube videos of songs & just don't know how) LOVE when you write the words, it was just a thought I was thinking
many times on TSMSS..that maybe you did not know how & this seemed like a good time to offer & help...you have so many songs in your heart & on your lips & I love when you personalize lyrics anyway...give you ownership! It;s easy to add songs though if you want...like the Shortybear Playlist!!! Let me know!
