“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus
Christ! By his great mercy he has given us a new birth into a living hope
through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,” 1 Peter 1:3
not just a snippet
from Emily’s poem,
not a song sung by
many singers, not
something we can’t see
but imagine it might be, now
hope
is as deep in us
as our hearts,
as close as
the breath we take,
as real as the tears
we taste on our cheeks.
