Hope starts with a letter “H”
Filed Under Life
The letter “H” bears the shape of a door, with “H” it opens up to “Heaven;” yet, it also opens up to “Hell.”
A door to joy, happiness and everlasting life, is what Christian calls “Heaven.” A door to tears, bitterness and forever suffering, is what Christian calls “Hell.” Though both words start with “H,” the pathway it leads to are totally different. In the history of mankind, people have always dreamed of a happy place where there is no tears, no sorrow. In the puzzles of mankind, people have always wondered where we are going to be after we die. Generations after generations, the ultimate pursuit and question never change despite religion.
As a Christian myself, I believe in a Christ who came to earth and saved mankind by redeeming himself on the cross. He opens up another door, a door called “Hope,” a pathway provided by Him to be saved from going to “Hell” a place not only exists after our physical death, but also exists during our physical being. I often think without love in life, the suffering on earth can be filled with revenge, bitterness and greediness. I often see through eyes of the suffering people, and there is no joy in their lives, lest any hope. If they have known Christ, who is holy, righteous and full of love and grace, and through the pathway of “Hope” Christ has provided, another door will open up to them, a door carved “Heaven” on it.
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” Hope afloat. Amen.
