You might be in the middle of something right now and it seems like it’d be a great time for God to answer your prayers. I believe a big part of hope is waiting…and waiting patiently.

"I think we like to talk a lot about being brave because the actual doing of it is so terrifying. It’s my belief that true fearlessness comes from living loved."

Hope believes you are making progress, too. Even if it seems like you’re only making tiny steps of progress, take note of them. Look back and see that you are not where you used to be, and don’t give up.

God can infuse your life with joy and peace as you believe…and as a result your hope will overflow.

There’s a freedom that comes from seeking only to bring pleasure to God, and not worrying about everyone else and what they might think.

Go on a mission of hope today, and make some good things happen. But resist the urge to post about it on Facebook, and see what happens.

As I courageously lean into the lives of people around me, treating them as if they are part of the insider’s club run by the God of the Universe, I see hope show up in great measure.

Who do you believe Jesus was? Was he just a good man, a good teacher, a prophet? I believe Jesus is the Son of God…and since this all about hope, I believe hope is only found in the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Hope rests beyond the misunderstood present moment and looks ahead with optimism. When I put my hope in God, I’m certain that what happens will make sense, even if I can’t see it at the time.

To be a person of hope, I believe it’s imperative to have your hope grounded in faith. Faith provides the foundation, the rock—the cornerstone, from which you can live your life.
