I know the plans I have for you; plans to prosper you, not to harm you; plans to give you hope and a future. but this will only happen if you put your hope in Me and live according to My Word.

Don't be afraid; just believe. That is your responsibility in our relationship: Believe that My love for you is unfailing; believe and trust in My goodness. And when you get discouraged, quickly turn to me; call out to Me for help and I will deliver you from trouble. My faithfulness with be your shield and your fortress. I will fill you with holy peace as you trust in Me, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of My Spirit.
