Hope Takes Many Forms


This is the angel, HOPE.
She currently stands in a healing garden of a small hospital in the high desert.
She was created by an artist who has had a heart's desire to help heal healthcare through beauty, wisdom, and the creation of sacred space.
Heidi Kujat, (www.heidikujat.com) is a remarkable woman who infuses her pieces with powerful energies that can radiate this to the spaces that they occupy.
Some of these spaces are people's homes. Some are in office buildings. Others are like this one, in a healing garden where patients and families can visit and experience HOPE firsthand.

When I first visited HOPE in her new space, there were special stones that someone had placed in her hand.
It was as if the individual were being asked to be 'held by hope', be 'carried by hope'.
So many these days are feeling separated from HOPE.
Through challenging life experiences, they have become disconnected from the Divine.
They may need help in remembering the ever present Spirit that is always present and always in attendance of our lives.
Our Creator does not distance from us...we allow this to happen, but we can choose again...and allow the closeness that the Creator desires.

This angel serves to remind us...to invite us to reengage HOPE.
It is so important that this be held in our hearts and that we share this with others.

May we open to HOPE.
May we radiate HOPE.
May we share our HOPE.
May we be HOPE.

Thank you for sharing this lovely sculpture and the hope it transmits. I love her outstretched arms. They speak of unlimited possibility and boundless hope, for sure! The artist has such a gift. And you too, with your beautiful words of encouragement. Yes, may we all keep the hope alive, not just for ourselves, but for everyone...
Blessings!
