"May the God of hope fill you with
all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by
the power of the Holy Spirit."
(Romans 15:3)
When tragedy strikes, when trouble
comes, when life disappoints us, we stand at the crossroads between hope and
despair, torn and hurting.
Despair
cements us in the present. Hope sends us dancing around dark corners trusting
in a tomorrow we cannot see because of the multiple pasts of life which we
cannot forget.
-- Joan D. Chittister, quoted in
“Hope: It’s More Than Wishful Thinking”
