About the Blog

‘The Sky, Not The Grave’ was created to share Hope’s knowledge and love of God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, the Holy Bible, and the Holy Catholic Church.

The blog’s name is derived from the lyrics of one of Hope’s favorite hymns titled ‘It Is Well With My Soul’ also known as ‘When Peace Like a River’. Lyrics written by Horatio G. Spafford in 1873, music and setting by Philip P. Bliss in 1876.

“But, Lord, ’tis for Thee, for Thy coming we wait, The sky, not the grave, is our goal; Oh trump of the angel! Oh voice of the Lord! Blessed hope, blessed rest of my soul!

It is well, (It is well,) with my soul, (with my soul,) It is well, it is well with my soul…”

Meet Hope

Hello, and welcome to my blog!

For the purpose of this blog, I’ll be using my middle name Hope, because that is what I pray you will find here. I am a Catholic wife and mother on a blogging mission to fulfill my part of the Lord’s commission to each of His people to “Go into all the world and preach the Gospel to the whole creation” (Mark 16:15).

Here I will share my knowledge and love of God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit with you, my dear readers, in the hope that your faith and mine may be strengthened according to God’s will for our lives.

In my blog posts, I’ll explore the Holy Bible and the traditions of the Holy Catholic Church, and together we will learn and grow in devotion to the Lord, one blog at a time.

So, sit back in a cozy chair with a nice warm cup of coffee or tea, and take some time to enjoy this tiny piece of the world as I see it.

May God Bless You, Always!

Hope
