Hope...

I read the Word among US - a daily meditation book. Its a Book that has the bible readings and then a write up regarding the readings for the day. It also has nice miracle and inspirational stories. It makes me feel good to read them. Of course sometimes, the message can be quite harsh too.

Today in the reflection area, there was this sentence " Hope is faith directed to the future. Its faith acting on and trusting in the promises God has made. "

Its good to have hope. But isn't it the word of this world that being too hopeful sometimes just brings more disappointments? I dont' know but I sure want to have hope.

I am already fighting with having faith. So is hope easier to embrace?

I am struggling to leave everything at His feet and just have peace in me. Yesterday, I was so worried. I am to move out this Sat and then so many things crop up. The lorry is too small lah, the lorry is senget lah. Now have to source for another lorry. At this festive period, where can get one so easily. I pray. I want to lift it up to Him. But at the moment I will say it but in a matter of few couple of minutes later, the negative thoughts floods back. So how ...?

I remember reading somewhere that "Hope is God's greatest gift to Man". And I agree whole heartedly.
