Hope, Gentleness...

Por: Pedro Paulo Costa 


We are living 
in times of war,
and in times of crimes
of abuse,
as well as
in other ways 
of violence,
in today's world...

We don't want 
announce tragedies,
like the ones that are 
occurring
in many countries, 
and we have seen 
through TV and the media,
but we wish 
announce peace...

In the Epistle 
of the Apostle Peter
we read the following...
You are always 
prepared 
to respond,
with meekness and fear 
to everyone who 
what to ask of you 
the reason for hope 
what is in you...

Lord 
summoned Jeremiah 
to go to the potter's house,
see how it's done 
with the vase, 
when it is being done
and it breaks...

It was at the time 
of the invasion 
of Babylon,
when Jeremiah 
witnessed hunger,
death and escape 
of God's people,
that passed 
out of despair 
of death and tragedy,
that came upon Israel...

The hope 
that Pedro refers to,
in his Epistle
means,
THE REGOJIZO 
AND TRUST,
total in Christ Jesus...

At the Potter's house,
where Jeremiah 
was taken by God,
it was for him to understand 
like the potter 
repair the broken vase...

[Chorus]
[That's why
said Peter,
be prepared
to respond
to everyone who asks you,
the reason for hope
what is in you...
What's the reason,
of hope
what is in you?]

[Chourus]
[Jeremiah also understood
that in times of war,
hope is in the Lord...
That's why he said,
I want to bring to memory 
that which gives me hope.]
