NEVER LOSE HOPE
Hope is the expectation of something to happen. It is that expectation that something will surely happen or occur. It may be a desire for something to come to pass or an assurance that we will achieve our desires.
Hope and faith works hand in hand. Hope is like the foundation on which one builds his or her faith. If you are not hoping to get anything, then there is no need to exercise faith in that thing.
Hope is all we have. It is all we fight with even when everything else is lost. When one lose hope, he also loses his very will to live.
There are many reasons why people lose hope. It may be because of setbacks in their business, hardship, family problems, marital problems, joblessness, fear of the unknown, disappointment, failure and others. But it is still dangerous to lose hope.
The one thing that makes any human useless in life is when he or she lose hope; because then, you think or believe that things will never get better. It is at that point you label yourself a failure.
When you lose hope, you lose your peace; because you will be filled with so much distress, anxiety and uneasiness will reign in your heart. When you lose hope, you are at a very dangerous state whereby nothing inspires or motivates you anymore. The very idea of death is much welcomed to you, and unless something good happens to you, you won't feel like making any other attempt to make your life better.
The best way to avoid that horrible state of hopelessness is for you to keep your hope alive. Just as the burning embers needs someone to fan them, so also you need to keep the fires of hope burning within you. You have got to exercise faith in YAHWEH. You don't need to encourage or engage yourself in self-pity; it will not help you. It will only make matters worse. You have got to have faith in YAHWEH and encourage yourself in His promises in the Bible.
Wait patiently on the Lord and He will renew your strength and show you great and mighty things. Are you facing challenges, disappointments and shame? Are you getting fed-up and overwhelmed with the troubles surrounding you? Wait on the Lord because He knows what you are going through. He said that He won't let troubles bigger than you to overcome you; so face the troubles with faith in YAHWEH, knowing that you are more than it. God is never late. Be focused and never lose hope because your miracle is on the way.
