HOPE/FAITH- First Advent Week
(For donations to be credited to the calendar year 2023 – see below)
“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.”
Romans 15:13
Your new beginning starts here in this place saturated with faith and hope. Everything begins with hope and everything builds from hope.
God is a God of second chances.
Churches around the world practice hope as the first week-long journey in the spiritual practice of Advent. We begin that journey now spending the entire week building our personal hope. Knowing we are connected with God this is easy to do.
Your belief builds your life. You live from inside out.
Believe and have faith that you can and you’re halfway there.
“But now faith, hope, love, abide these three; but the greatest of these is love.”
1 Corinthians 13:13
Many people have faith in the wrong things. We can have faith that something will turn out bad. Faith must be invested in your hopes.
Faith believes in something bigger than yourself, better than today.
Hope knows, without doubt, that no matter how big the current problem seems God is with you helping you get to the other side.
Spirituality is the depth of your bliss in the middle of your problem.
Then comes love … Falling in love with your life. And re-falling in love with the people in your life.
We also pray the same for the words that reach you in today’s Positive Daily Inspiration. We pray that no matter what is happening in your life you are filled with new God’s hope this very minute.
With God’s help, when we face the challenge, we come out stronger, not weaker, EVERYTIME.
In prayer, I see you profoundly blessed by God in a cornucopia of good. Looking back on my life, when I have gone through difficult times, I have been amazed at the extra blessings God gave me. Some, I saw right away, others took the clear vision of retrospect. The blessings, and the help of God were always there, overflowing. I pray that this is the same for you right now.
I pray that through God’s help you rise to the next level in your life. You welcome the opportunity that is afforded you. I pray that your vision is enhanced with views of hope. Your positive attitudes are reflected in your growing understanding of God’s truth that sets you free from present limitation.
As we move from one level of experience to the next, we look forward to new experiences that will stimulate us, to new opportunities to express the creativity that is God-given.
“All things are possible to them who believe.”
Mark 9:23

INSTRUCTIONS FOR LIGHTING THE ADVENT CANDLE:
Choose a family member or yourself to light the first candle for Hope/Faith (purple candle) from the Christ Candle (white candle).
SAY:
“We light this first candle of advent representing Hope/Faith. Hope is a joyful expectation that God is working for the good in my life. My hope is found in anything this world has to offer. My hope is found in Jesus. Hope has a name. Hope’s name is Jesus. Hope/Faith has come into my life.”
PRAYER:
In the name of Jesus Christ, I give my mind over to optimistic hopeful thinking.
I know, dear God, I am connected with You.
Therefore, I will not doubt.
In faith I uplift my thinking to believe the best.
I believe in You and therefore I believe in the best outcomes.
Thank You God
