We must rediscover the distinction between hope and expectation.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Hope is favorable and confident expectation; it's an expectant attitude that something good is going to happen and things will work out, no matter what situation we're facing.
We actually believe in hope. But hope requires purpose. And purpose requires direction.
Hope is trust in God's promises, faith that if we act now, the desired blessings will be fulfilled in the future.
Hope is not just... out in the sky, or accepting the facts or reality. Hope is having optimistic, positive expectations.
The point about hope is that it is something that occurs in very dark moments. It is like a flame in the darkness; it isn't like a confidence and a promise.
Hope is the magic carpet that transports us from the present moment into the realm of infinite possibilities.
I thought, if ever there were a time to write a book about hope, it's now.
Hope is in the name of God, the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Hope is when you compare your suffering to the infinite, immeasurable love and grace of God.
Hope is independent of the apparatus of logic.
We love to expect, and when expectation is either disappointed or gratified, we want to be again expecting.
