Jean Kerr says &#8211; \u201cHope is the feeling you have that the feeling you have isn\u2019t permanent\u201d. These words should remind us we are never alone and the feeling of loneliness you may be experiencing is not permanent!<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We may try to exist without hope, but in the depths of our hearts the will to live remains strong. We know that one day something good will come. Failure to see beyond now, can lead to shattered dreams, disinterest, and isolation. So what can we count on to remain alive now? The promises of God. Ultimately our supreme hope is not in the things we can see, taste, and feel. Our deepest longing is to find meaning and peace in our relationship with God himself. The song writer says \u201cMy hope is built on nothingness than Jesus blood and righteousness\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Prayer for today<\/strong>:\u00a0<em>Lord give me hope in the areas of my life where I\u2019ve quit believing that things could be any different. Give me wisdom to know the difference between my heart\u2019s hopes and your plans for me.
