I don’t know if you’ve thought about this or not, but you’re hardwired for hope. You don't live by instinct. Every decision you make, every choice you make, every response you have to the situations and relationships of your life is fueled and motivated by hope. Your story--the story of your life--is a hope story. Your happiest moments are hope moments. Even your saddest moments are about hope dashed or hope destroyed. You’re always looking for hope. You’re always attaching the hope of your heart to something.

The problem is that there is no created thing in this world that will be able to sustain your hope. Everything will fail you. Every person, job, or situation will eventually leave you hopeless. But that's not a bad thing, because hopelessness is the doorway to true Hope.
