Hope in the Midst of Pain

“Tomorrow’s hope flowers amid today’s pain.” Pope Francis

Meditate on this gem of wisdom from Pope Francis. How have you experienced this truth in your life? Can you remember a season of pain that has now flowered into hope?

I used a 4x6 watercolor postcard, watercolor paints, and a fine black marker to create this reminder to hang on my refrigerator.

What image or images come to your mind as you meditate on this statement. Create a prayer card for yourself using whatever art supplies you are comfortable with. Remember it’s all about the process not the final product.
