Hope is a powerful sentiment.
There’s the type of hope that is a grasp through the uncertainty. It looks ahead through thick fog of ambiguity with fingers crossed that something might be out there that will be pleasing to them.
Then there’s the type of hope that has a confident assurance. That assurance is not down to anything tangible.
This hope is the the kind of motivating force that keeps you holding on when others have given up. It’s not wishful thinking. Especially when God gives reason to hope. When God gives reason to hope – you are hoping for the best.
Some situations and developments can leave you deflated and disappointed. It’s why returning to the Lord who gives reason to hope is so important. When you return, when you look into what He says and how He reveals Himself, there is a large catalogue of events that highlighted how placing hope in Him is never wasted. It is hoping and being confidently assured that the best is yet to come.
It’s one of the reasons why hope is such a powerful sentiment.
