Building Hope

Mark 11:24

I tell you to believe that you may obtain,
The things you ask for in prayer to retain;
Never defeated means that you have hope,
Needed especially with tribulations to cope;
The test comes in all types of adversities,
That just may affect all of your abilities;
Times of sorrow, sadness, fuss and trouble,
That's able to bury you in a pile of rubble;
Could be where there is life there is hope,
Or another way for to see the full scope;
Where there is hope there is life as best,
It will help get you through in your quest;
More hope you build and less frustration,
The cornerstone in building your foundation;
Turn your situation of poverty and despair,
In prosperity and joy resulting from prayer;
You will receive God's boundless blessing,
After you have finished a prayer confessing;
Think of where there's a will there's a way,
Giving you hope to getting through everyday;
