Title:
Hope
Description:
This poem describes the divine outpouring of hope present in all circumstances, bounding before us like a child and teaching us how to rejoice and see with fresh eyes. I asked my friends and followers on Instagram to send me recent moments of unexpected hope or joy in their lives, and I was surprised at the abundance of cherished experiences people shared. This ode is a weaving together of those images, creating a time capsule of how the Lord has been faithful even amid current sorrows and constraints. He infiltrates our everyday with radical hope.
