Hope

Job 11:18 - "And you will have confidence, because there is hope; you will be protected and take your rest in safety."
  When we are  bombarded with negative thoughts and  constant examples of how things can go wrong, it isn't difficult to understand why many may lose confidence and courage in the waiting process.  Regardless of the wait, it is surely worth it.  One of the greatest motivators for sustaining confidence is to re-evaluate where you are and giving thanks for where you are going.  Planning for the future requires hope.  Hope reminds us that there is something worth working toward; fighting through; and praying for.  Hope tells us to keep moving even when our bodies are weary, our minds are baffled and our souls are discouraged. Hope keeps us striving, even though circumstances keep changing.  Hope dictates a pattern of courage that is unrivaled  Hope is the glue that holds our dreams together as we connect the puzzle pieces that will form the picture of our destiny.  Never let hope slip away, diminish or fade.  Keep encouraging yourself.  Read your Bible daily for inspiration.  Pray continually and guard your heart and mind against anything that wants you to maintain the 'status quo'. 
Every day is a good day; it is up to us to make it a GREAT day!  Have an awesome weekend.  See you on Monday!.  Be blessed!  Dr. JoAnn
