Favorite Quote:
'I waited patiently for God to help me; then he listened and heard my cry. He lifted me out of the pit of despair, out from the bog and the mire, and set my feet on a hard, firm path, and steadied me as I walked along. He has given me a new song to sing, of praises to our God. Now many will hear of the glorious things he did for me, and stand in awe before the Lord, and put their trust in him.' (Psalm 41:1-3)

Sharing hope with people!
Hope often first comes in the form of opportunities to sustain oneself and the ability to build and then care for one’s family. Additionally, if one can then see the opportunity to fulfil a dream and have an impact in some meaningful way, then hope builds.
Hope touches the deepest urge for meaning and belonging, recognises no borders, neither political, economic or geographical. Hope is probably the biggest need in our world today.
