Hanging Onto Hope: Reflections and Prayers for Finding ''Good'' in an Imperfect World, Paperback

A purple petunia growing through a crack in the sidewalk...two small sparrows perched on a roof...seed catalogs in February... Our world is yearning for signs of hope, and with images like these, Melannie Svoboda helps us open our hearts to hope, even in the darkest of times. Here, she explores the relationships between hope and faith, love, courage, prayer, pain, and sorrow. She also offers short prayers and questions for personal reflection or group sharing. This beautiful, touching book is perfect for prayerful meditation. As Sr. Melannie says, We believers know hope s origin. And we know hope s destiny. That origin and destiny is...God.
