"Grab ... hope with both hands and never let go!" Whenever your situation looks impossible, remember what the scripture says in the book of Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future".
This reading encourages one to hold on and trust in God. We do not know the plans that He has laid for us, however, if we believe in His Word He has said that He will never leave us nor forsake us. When things might look as if they will not come to pass, take a look at Matthew 19:26, where Jesus said "With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible".
I know that life has a way sometimes to take the little hope that we have and dash it against the nearest wall; however, if we just hold on a little while and trust Him. As God has never lost a battle, grab hold of your hope with both hands and never, ever let go!
