Hope Travels

By

The submissions to this month’s One Word Project were truly amazing.  Take a dive into our Picture Hope Flickr Group and be inspired.  These are the images we’ll carry with us around the world as Stephanie and I travel to uncover the kind of hopeful stories that can really take our hearts somewhere new.

Leave us the hope note you’d write if you felt sure the just right person would read it.  And of course, any last minute images you’d like to see travel all the way around the globe.

  2. I hope you get the chance to grow to your full potential without anyone telling you something is impossible.

  5. You do not have to be good.
    You do not have to walk on your knees
    for a hundred miles through the desert repenting.
    You only have to let the soft animal of your body
    love what it loves.

    ~Mary Oliver (Wild Geese)

    Dreams are the embodiment of hope.

    You’re never too old to dream and you’re never too old for your dreams to come true.

  8. Once you choose hope, anything’s possible.

    -Christopher Reeve

    and I really like this one…

    Fear grows in darkness; if you think there’s a bogeyman around, turn on the light.

    -Dorothy Thompson

  14. I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in Him. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit. ~Romans 15:13

    Love you guys. Can’t wait to see what you capture along the way..but remember these words.

    There are places I remember all my life
    Though some have changed
    Some forever, not for better
    Some have gone and some remain

    All these places have their moments
    Of lovers and friends I still can recall
    Some are dead and some are living
    In my life I loved them all

    And with all these friends and lovers
    There is no one compares with you
    And these mem’ries lose their meaning
    When I think of love as something new

    And I know I’ll never lose affection
    For people and things that went before
    I know I’ll often stop and think about them
    In my life I loved you more

    And I know I’ll never lose affection
    For people and things that went before
    I know I’ll often stop and think about them
    In my life I loved you more

    In my life I loved you more

  25. Hope. Hope that even though plans don’t pan out as you might have thought they should, something even more miraculous could be growing under your feet. Just take a moment to notice it (and maybe fill some other people in on it as well!).
