A flower growing through a crack in the pavement... two small sparrows perched on a roof... seed catalogs in February... Our world is yearning for signs of hope, and with images like these, Melannie Svoboda helps us open our hearts to hope, even in the darkest of times. Hope, she says, is rooted in our deepest longings and desires. "Hope begins with the awareness that we are not yet fulfilled-no matter how successful we may be or how many items we have checked off our bucket list." Each chapter of this beautiful book offers powerful reflections on hope in contexts of faith, love, courage, prayer, pain, sorrow, and more. Sr. Melannie also offers short prayers, questions for personal reflection or group sharing, and even suggestions for music videos to accompany your prayer. With all the demands of our contemporary world, this enlightening book offers an opportunity to pause, rest, and renew our trust in God. Book jacket.
