Chronic Hope


Why "chronic hope" ? The Free Merriam-Webster dictionary defines chronic as " marked by long duration or frequent recurrence". I named this blog Chronic Hope as it is my intention that this will be a place where hope, encouragement, compassion and understanding will be the heart of this site.

This is a place for people in all parts of the journey of life.

Different Perspective

"Even though you intended to do harm to me, God intended it for good, in order to preserve a numerous people, as he is doing today." Exodus 50:20  NRSV

Today I'd like to share a poem as our devotion. It is from the Sufi poet Rumi-  one of my favorite poets.

If God said,
"Rumi, pay homage to everything
That has helped you
Enter my arms,"
There would not be one experience of my life,
Not one thought, not one feeling,
Not any act, I
Would not
Bow to
