And a Hope

“I know the thoughts

that I think toward you,”

says the Lord,

“thoughts of peace and not of evil,

to give you a future and a hope.”

                                                            Jeremiah 29:11

Where is that hope?

                                                                                                                        In you?

                                                In me?

                                                                        Under the sea?

Or spread through the galaxy?

                                                                                                I think it’s in He…

                                                                                                            The Christ,

                                                                                                                        Nailed to the tree.
