BLESSED HOPE

God brightens my hope* with His salvation glow His blessed redemption makes faith to grow Indeed freeing against hell’s damnation torture Assuring my soul eternal triumphant future. The Lord settles my hope along His ready comfort As He accompanies with protective escort Constantly guiding against deceit so vain By immutable Scriptures that in truth does reign. Christ my Saviour is my life's resurrection hope By His compassion, love, and mercy of gracious scope Helping me to conquer any attacking misery Since He is the supreme champion of victory.
*Titus 2:13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ. January 3, 2024 2nd place, "This or That, Vol 22" Poetry Contest Sponsored by Edward Ibeh; judged on 1/10/2024

What a wonderful poem! I believe Beata was inspired by Abram visited by angels, and told of the nation to be established through him. I'm guessing.
