New Hope

Just the other day one of my old friends walked into the church that I work at (only for another three days though). David has been living in the park for quite some time now. I first met him about 8 months ago and loved the sweet fellowship we shared over the Bible and through prayer. I was overjoyed to hear that he got a job with a computer company and will soon be able to get a place to stay in with that kind of money coming in. These are the verses he shared with me as he told of his joy and his grief:
"I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. Yet a little while and the world will see me no more, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live. In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you. Whoever has my commandments and keeps them, he it is who loves me. And he who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and manifest myself to him."
