If God brought you to it,
He will get you through it.

Hope in the Shadows


When shadows fall and truth seems lost,


Beneath the weight of lies’ great cost,


A spark ignites, though faint, it burns,


The wheel of justice slowly turns.



The webs of falsehood twist and bind,


Yet truth resides within the mind.


Through every doubt, through every fight,


Its steady glow defies the night.



In darkest hours, strength is found,


When silence echoes all around.


A voice emerges, clear and true,


Revealing what was always due.



The path is hard, the journey steep,


Through buried secrets, lies that creep.


But hope persists, a flame unseen,


It fights for all that might have been.



So when despair begins to call,


And doubt seems stronger than it all,


Remember this: the light will show,


For truth and hope are bound to grow.



⚖️⚖️⚖️



Whether seeking justice, understanding, or peace, let this be your reminder: darkness is not the end. Breakthroughs are born in perseverance, and the truth, no matter how deeply buried, has a way of rising to the surface. Hold onto hope—it is the light that will guide you through.

Hope is much needed but that wheel of justice sometimes turns a bit to slow....

There is much truth in this, but it is the darkness others suffer which I find hardest to reconcile with — the victims of war, for instance. I don't think I have deserved my good fortune or they their misfortune — still, I try to remind myself that as I do have a good life it would be wasteful for me, and useless to those others, not to appreciate it.

Thank you for this positive poem. The light will shine through the cracks of darkness. Prayers good deeds and love for all those who suffer.

Your words are hopeful and that is as we should be. But it is also stunning how humankind so willingly time after time lets in the darkness at their own peril.

Truth and hope are bound to grow...for some of us at least. May they grow well in all of us here.

Being happy doesn't mean everything's perfect. It means you decide to see beyond the imperfections.


"Count your blessings. Once you realize how valuable you are and how much you have going for you, the smiles will return, the sun will break out, the music will play, and you will finally be able to move forward to the life that God intended for you with grace, strength, courage and confidence." ~ Og Mandino


If I could wish for my life to be perfect, it would be tempting, but I would have to decline, for life would no longer teach me anything.
