The Power of One's Hope

My friend... I want to share something with you tonight. It’s a thought,

a feeling, a quiet truth that can be a flicker in the deepest dark. It starts with a

question that echoes in the silent moments of the night: Can one person’s hope truly make a difference?

Think of the surfer, a young girl, her board her world. A flash of grey, a sudden terror,

and a life is changed forever. The world sees a tragedy, a loss.

But in the quiet of her hospital room, a different story begins.

A story not of what was lost, but of what remained. The salt of the ocean still called

to her soul. And so, with one arm, she paddled back out.
