How do we hope again? Reject your rejections. Remember that God knows you and He chose you for blessing, protection, growth and joy. See God’s hand in your hardships. When suffering increases in your life don’t buy the myths that God doesn’t care and that the suffering will never end. Everything has a season, and God uses those seasons to purify your faith to trust in Him. Lastly, go to the ultimate source. God offers the solid hope that you can build every other hope upon. We are right to expect great things from a great God who has great plans and always—and by always I mean always—keeps His promises. As Peter said, “So be truly glad. There is wonderful joy ahead.”
