Trust Blossoms
Less Fear, Less Stress, More Joy, More Happiness, Provides Hope
What is Hope
intransitive verb
To wish for a particular event that one considers possible.
To have confidence; trust.
To desire and consider possible: synonym: expect.
Can you see Hope
Ask the kids to close their eyes, ask them what the see - nothing
Then ask them to open one of their eyes. Ask what they say then ask them to open both of their eyes and ask what they see and they say everything they say well can you see what's outside the church can you see what's down the street no you remember it always in our human form that's why we have to trust and have hope that God is always there it is God who sees all things and wants the best for us
How do we embrace hope - by remembering -
We become an example to others
Hearing the Gospel call to love should propel us to work in ways that address the needs of the world. We should be creative and committed to putting the Gospel into action

Conclusion
TRUST IN GOD
The Creator of all things always comes through. He always fulfills His promises.
God is Hope and God never fails.
