Heralds of hope!

"The Spirit of the Lord is on Me, because he has anointed Me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent Me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to release the oppressed" Luke 4:18

If we are true and loyal messengers of Christ — we can never be prophets of gloom, disheartenment, and despair. We must ever be heralds of hope! We must always have good news to tell.

There is a gospel which we have a right to proclaim to everyone, whatever his sorrow may be.

In Christ there is always hope, a secret of conquest, a power to transmute loss into gain, to change defeat to victory, to bring life from death.

We are living worthily, only when we are living victoriously ourselves at every point, when we are inspiring and helping others to live victoriously, and when our life is a song of hope and gladness — even though we sing out of tears and pain.
