Because of Jesus – there is always hope,
even in the darkest moments of your life.
Timothy Keller
The real hope is not in something we think we can do, but in God,
who is making something good out of it in some way we cannot see.
Thomas Merton

has a vision and knows the way we should go.

My God, keep me going as you have promised.
Then I will live. Don’t let me lose all hope.
Psalm 119:116New International Reader’s Version
The hope that God has provided for you is not merely a wish.
Neither is it dependent on other people, possessions, or circumstances for its validity. Instead, biblical hope is an application of your faith
that supplies a confident expectation in God’s fulfillment of His promises. Coupled with faith and love, hope is part of the abiding characteristics in a believer’s life.
John C. Broger
May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who has loved us and given us everlasting comfort and hope, which we don’t deserve, comfort your hearts with all comfort, and help you in every good thing you say and do.
2 Thessalonians 2:16-17 Living Bible
