The Hope that Lives in You

I bless the hope that
Already lives in you!

Child of God,
You don’t have to send out
A search party, looking
For Hope—

Hope already dwells in you!

The “riches of the glory of
This mystery…
Is Christ in you,
The hope of glory.” (Col. 1:27, ESV)

Your hope isn’t
Hiding
In the distance
Playing coy.
Your hope is in Christ,
In you,
Abiding in your heart.

Every inkling of Christ’s presence
In your life,
Every prompting of the Spirit
In your spirit,
Points to the mystery—
Christ in you is the hope of glory.
