Quote

One of the hardest things is to create hope.

My great hope is to laugh as much as I cry; to get my work done and try to love somebody and have the courage to accept the love in return.

Gird your hearts with silent fortitude, suffering yet hoping all things.

Hope is the most exciting thing there is in life.

There are certain things I believe we need to keep in our emotional arsenal as we navigate through life. Hope is a big one. The more of that we can carry, the better.

There are days when my heart is troubled, and just being in the Lord's presence and thinking about His love for me fills my heart with inexplicable peace and joy.

We really feel happier when things look bleak. Hope is endurance. Hope is holding on and going on and trusting in the Lord.

I try to give people hope. Even though life is bleak, there's hope out there.

If our hearts are ready for anything, we can open to our inevitable losses, and to the depths of our sorrow. We can grieve our lost loves, our lost youth, our lost health, our lost capacities. This is part of our humanness, part of the expression of our love for life.

Hope makes people good, a lot of the time. You hope for a brighter future, and resentment is outweighed.
