The Hole of No Hope

It seems easy sometimes to lose sight of hope. Hope is a little word that sure does pack a powerful lot of motivation. As a child of God, I know that I have many things to look forward to in heaven. But I really believe that God knows how we are made, and that we need hope to keep going in this life. I  suffered with depression as a young woman. And the worse thing about being depressed is feeling like you are going down, down, into that "hole of no hope." My heart goes out to any who have suffered this way or may be suffering right now. Please know that you are loved by me and most of all, by our sweet Lord. He doesn't want us to keep falling in that hole. If your problem is one that you see no way to fix (usually the case, that's why we're in it.) F.B. Meyer says, "Faith is the reception of the spiritual to make good the lack of the physical." FAITH is the rope that can take you right outta that hole and put you on the ground, dancing for joy. Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things unseen. Faith is substance that can make the physical problem seem like NO PROBLEM. What fabulous substance that is! You say,  "I'll take some please."  Then pick up your Bible and get started trading your "hole of no hope" for the "rope of hope" (FAITH).

. Romans 10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the WORD of GOD.
