Has the bottom fallen out of your life before?  In the last couple of years?;  In the last few months?; In the last few weeks?; Yesterday?  Are you still in the pit of despair?  Are you, extremely, anxious about the outcome of your situation? Did you know that you are not in that PIT alone?  Do you know that God knows you are there?; That you are hurting; that you are feeling alone?  I hear you asking, well why doesn’t God do something about my situation?  God will do something about it in God’s timing, not ours.  Challenges build character.....Challenges make us cry out to God, who is the author and finisher of our faith....challenges increase our faith when we hold on......challenges strengthen us to be a blessing to others....challenges grow us up in the Lord......Challenges mold us into who God wants us to be, when we have faith and depend on God!

Thornton Wilder is quoted in the book A Long Obedience in the Same Direction, stating, “Hope is a projection of the imagination; so is despair.  Despair all too readily embraces the ills it foresees; Hope is an energy and arouses the mind to explore every possibility to combat them.........”

The book also states:  In response to hope, the imagination is aroused to picture every possible issue, to try every door, to fit together even the most heterogeneous pieces in the puzzle.  After the solution has been discovered, it is difficult to recall the steps taken - so many of them are.....Just Below the Level of Consciousness.

Keep believing because HOPE will sustain you!!  Keep trusting and HOPE will give you new energy.  Keep trying and HOPE will reveal the light at the end of your tunnel.  Keep faith in our Creator and God will see us through any challenge!  Your solution may not look like you imagined nor come when you planned it, but I assure you that God will work it out well and in time!  Never, never give up!  Keep you eyes focused on God!
