My Journey to God

Sign of Hope

In the dead of winter,
I strolled amongst the trees
And came upon a holly bush,
Whose branches spoke to me
As a sign of hope
That God’s love will bring forth life.

Hope comes from faith,
Belief in things unseen,
Life amidst the dead of winter,
Reminding me once more
That patient waiting
Will bring forth the buds of spring.
