Hopeworks Community
Be strong, and take heart all ye who hope in the Lord. Psalm 31:24
The Hopeworks Community Message
ON diagnosis: You are not the things You are called No matter how frequently you are called them, Or who calls Or why they call. You are not the things you are like regardless of how much you are like them. You are not the things that measure you, that place you or limit you. You are not what you have, how you look, or how you feel. You may be many things, But no thing is all you are. You are a gift in a world needing gifts, an opportunity, a miracle, in a world that often believes in neither. You can care and be cared for, Touch and be touched, Laugh and cry, Live and live for. You can be alone or be with, be brave or be scared. Nothing is closed, but nothing is free. Close not your eyes And reach to be all you can be.-
