It always reminds that the rebirth is possible with God’s strength.

Loved this, Lisa; “Sometimes we forget to hope because we forget the promise”. God’s promise is faithful even when we are not. We have every reason to hope.

It makes a big difference when we focus on God’s promises rather than on our circumstances. His promise to work all things together for good is one that has helped me a lot!

I’ve been focusing too much on what I have lost in the past and forgetting what wonderful future I have in Christ. There are times when I get so wrapped up in the regrets of the past, I forget I have a life to live in the present, and to count the many blessings God has placed before me. I need to choose living in joy rather than remaining mired in the past.
