until hope returns (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780999071632)

Have you ever wondered what it was like to be one of the disciples who walked with Jesus during his time on the earth? How would I react when He gathered the little children around Him? How I would have felt if one of the others got the seat next to Jesus at a meal? How did it feel when Jesus took the water and towel and washed my feet...my dirty feet? Would I have stood with Him when He was arrested? Where would I have been when He was being beaten and crucified? I have wondered about those things. I still wonder about those things. I wonder more about how I will react while I am walking the earth with Jesus as my model. How will I treat those who are tired, broken, weak, sick, and struggling to get through life? How do I react when I am mistreated, when my dreams fade, and how will I handle the most difficult circumstances in my life? Will I remain faithful? Will I stand strong? Will I crumble under the pressure? In Until Hope Returns I entertain some of those thoughts, share some examples of what I've seen, heard, and experienced. And, as much as anything, I try to offer hope where there is none, or where hope has been overshadowed by pain, disappointment, and loss. Drawn from everyday ordinary life experiences Until Hope Returns is a reminder that sometimes we have to smile through the tears, we have to endure the darkness of night in order to behold the beauty in a sunrise, and we have to hold on to the One who created us until hope returns to remind us that in Him is life...the abundant life.
