“Giving up hope is for the hopeless.” – This is a quote by Lloyd Davis (played by Bruce Boxleitner), from the movie, Love’s Everlasting Courage.
No matter how bad things get, there is still hope. It may be buried deep within us, but it’s there. We still have the ability to step away from the sheer mountain of things that threaten hopelessness to see the other side. We know we can’t give up, or give in. We may have to shift gears, choose the other fork in the road, or bulldoze through the middle, but know in your heart there is always a way around the problems. We just have to stop. Take a deep breath. Search for the successes, and lean on God and His timing.
And once you have done that, you may find that a bit of peace has covered over the encroaching hopelessness, and you can get back up, take another step, and try again. Listen in to find out more about keeping the hope burning bright in your life.
