Hope on a Rope

Found another gem from my pal Chuck Swindoll...

When we are trapped in a tunnel of misery, HOPE points to the light at the end.

When we are overworked and exhausted, HOPE gives us fresh energy.

When we are discouraged, HOPE lifts our spirits.

When we are tempted to quit, HOPE keeps us going.

When we lose our way and confusion blurs the destination, HOPE dulls the edge of panic.

When we fear the worst, HOPE reminds us that God is still in control.

When we must endure the consequences of God's decisions, HOPE fuels our recovery.

When we find ourselves unemployed, HOPE tells us we still have a future.

When we are forced to sit back and wait, HOPE gives us the patience to trust.

When we feel rejected and abandoned, HOPE reminds us we're not alone.

When we say our final farewell to someone we love, HOPE of life beyond the grave gets us through our grief.

HOPE isn't optional. It's essential to our survival. HOPE is basic to life.

Where is my HOPE found? Food for thought...
