A Smoky Mountain HI

Here is a journey I make each day. Time flows on this side of eternity. I have aged as gracefully as reasonable as can be be expected, and yet feel not a day older in my mind. As I begin a life in the Smoky Mountains I hope you will share my journey as well. www.kleincabin.com

The Ramifications of Hope..
++++++++++++++++++++++

Hope lurks in the hearts of every man, until all faith is lost.

It is because of my afflictions and my weaknesses that I conjure up hope.

Hope is faith looking through binoculars.

Never measure your value by your talents; measure instead, by your willingness.

Even better than your willingness, is to measure by what you are actually doing with your willingness.

Men measure from the outside in; while God measures from the inside out.

If you are a Christian, you are never “unchosen.”

Hope endures the punishment of public opinion.

Hope and faith are two twines that when woven together with love cannot be broken.

Christians are not “rejectable,” only “directable“.

Whenever you have “had enough,” there is still hope.

It is our hope, that in our weaknesses, He will make us strong!

You can never use up your hope or diminish your faith.

God, Himself, has given you Faith, Hope, and Love to strengthen yourself.

Failure has little to do with either faith or hope; most likely it will be the execution of them.

Everyone has a secret weakness that they struggle with…yes everyone.

Your “thorn in the flesh” is to help you build your faith and develop your hopes.

Some weaknesses are more noticeable than others, but we all have our weaknesses.

What you do in spite of your weaknesses, is what is memorable about your life.

Men may reject you, but Jesus embraces you!

If you are a Christian, you have chosen to be chosen!

A Christian never need concern himself, as his next step has been ordered.

Walk faithfully, and you will have hope.

Hope is seen on the shoulder of faith, which support one on the knees of prayer.

Wealth is what you take to Heaven with you not what you leave behind.
