  • 1 MINUTE OF HOPE - Bloom in the Dark
    It's often during the dark times when we bloom the brightest, says Deana H Adams, PhD, Founder/President of Hope After Brain Injury.

     

    Dark times - i.e. heartaches, tragedies, grief - often occur at night. 
    As you soldier through dark times, hope and joy will come to others through what you continue to gain and learn from your adversity.

     

    Question to think about: If you could be a flower, what kind would you be? Why?

  • 1 MINUTE OF HOPE - Hope
    HOPE! ... what a huge impact it can have!!!

     

    As you work, push whatever you're dealing with, or have to pull something, consider putting your trust in GOD and taking Him up on His Promise at this very moment:

     

    May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
    (...a wise man named Paul once wrote this GOD-Truth to a bunch of Believers in Rome; he wanted to encourage them and teach them the ways of GOD.)
