How to Love Others… {Mr. Roger’s Style}

This past summer as I was leaving church one Sunday morning, out of nowhere, I had the thought “I wonder if Mr. Rogers knew what he was doing when he wrote the song “Won’t You Be My Neighbor?” My suspicion told me the answer was a resounding, yes! So, when I began investigating, a few…

Discouraged by the events of the day, I sensed God Discouraged by the events of the day, I sensed God nudging me to look out my car window. Shining through the steamy rays of what felt like endless disappointment was a perfect reminder of GOD’S PROMISE smiling back at me. 

“Dare I hope, Lord?”, I thought.

I’d experienced this sort of nudging once before with another rainbow sighting. Again, the pervading thought, “Dare I hope, Lord?” 

I’m reminded of the rare, double rainbow Nashville’s @covenantknights experienced in 2023 when tragedy threatened their hope in an unseen God. And I’m perfectly wrecked all over again by the goodness of God. And the audacity of hope! 

The promise of the rainbow is God’s gift to a broken, troubled world. It represents the perfect and the imperfect, the seen and the unseen, the now and the not yet. 

“Show me your ways, Lord, teach me your paths. Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my savior—and my hope is in you all day long (Psalm 25:4-6).”

Our hope, as believers, rests in an unseen reality. Dare to hope in the promises of the Lord. He really does love us, y’all!

Have you experienced a true-blue, storm-wrapped promise fulfilled through a rainbow sighting? As always, I’d love to hear. 💕

Hope is life-giving. And Jesus is our living hope! Hope is life-giving. And Jesus is our living hope! He brings us out of death and despair—and places within us “the hope of glory” (Col. 1:27). 

Hope is the characterization of our salvation in Christ. And where there is Hope, there is life—abundantly (John 10:10). Who wouldn’t want to share the good news of a living hope with a world in desperate need of a Savior? 

The presence of living hope in our lives transforms us from the inside out. And when we rely on our hope in Him for the abundant life, our lives are filled with joy. HOPE is meant to be shared, y’all!

“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. In His great mercy, He has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead” (1 Peter 1:3).

I think the biggest fallacy we have as mothers is I think the biggest fallacy we have as mothers is that our children no longer need us after they turn 18. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Being a mom means being a lifetime prayer warrior. 

“Her children rise up and call her blessed” (Proverbs 31:28a).

Happy Mother’s Day, friends! Hug your mama— 💕
