People are worried about the ecconomy and the Mexican Swine Flu "epidemic." Folks email me and tell me they have hope but things just don't look good. They are struggling in all aspects of their lives and they need to hold onto hope.

My question to them is where does your hope come from? Is it the power of positive thinking? Just think happy positive thoughts and things will look better and brighter and might actually turn around?

I am a realist, I look at things and analyze the situation. I then try to formulate a plan or several in case plan a does not work out. However, I don't rely on my abilities and skills to help me get through, I put my faith in God. he is the one who gives me the mind that I have, the ability to think and utilize the thought processes and come up with a solution.

My Hope comes through my faith in God knowing that He is the one who will provide for me. His word promises it and we must stand on that faith during good and bad times.

Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. (KJV)

Know that no matter where you are at in life, that if you put your faith and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ and repent of your sins, He is just and will forgive you of those sins and you will have the hope that all of us who proclaim to be Followers of Christ have.
