Challenge Word #1: Hope

Our first word of 2010 is... HOPE! I thought this was very fitting. I have a lot of hopes for 2010 for me, my family, my church, my friends.

Hope is...

one of the three main elements of Christian character (1 Cor. 13:13). It is joined to faith and love, and is opposed to seeing or possessing (Rom. 8:24; 1 John 3:2). "Hope is an essential and fundamental element of Christian life, so essential indeed, that, like faith and love, it can itself designate the essence of Christianity (1 Pet. 3:15; Heb. 10:23)." Unbelievers are without this hope (Eph. 2:12; 1 Thess. 4:13). Christ is the actual object of the believer's hope, because it is in his second coming that the hope of glory will be fulfilled (1 Tim. 1:1; Col. 1:27; Titus 2:13). It is spoken of as "lively", i.e., a living, hope, a hope not frail and perishable, but having a perennial life (1 Pet. 1:3).

Easton's Bible Dictionary




I used....
-A Child's Year cart for the word hope
-Sweethearts cart for the tag with flower cut out
-paper was given to me so I don't know the brand
-silver glitter glue on the border, butterflies and word
-For the butterfly... when I cut the paper down to 8x8, I cut out an extra butterfly from the paper and used a pop dot to layer on top of the butterfly that was printed on the page.
