Our Hope Is Rooted in God
Full Text
We declare that waiting will not have the final word over our lives. We will bring our desire to God without shame and our disappointment without pretense. We reject blame, bitterness, and isolation. We choose love, truth, wise counsel, and patient hope. Whatever path lies ahead, the faithfulness of God will remain our foundation, and His presence will sustain us.
