Daring to Hope

I dared to HOPE
First and foremost,,i thank God for such a beautiful day and for giving me the chance to see this day and to walk in his purpose. So many nights i have cried myself to sleep, so many nights i have asked the "WHY" question..why me Lord, why not turn it around, what have i done wrong and why why me Lord?..On these nights I would curl up in a ball under my covers, face the wall and hope this time there would be a break-through in my prayers. Many nights, as I cried myself to sleep, I believed everything I had hoped for was lost and the situation was hopeless. I tarried in the pit of despair much longer than necessary..in some circumstances i failed to trust.. my heart has been broken a few times, my plans have failed several times, friends have deceived me, some have left, some hated, some stayed even though they never cared much.


There were times when i could find myself with no single dollar in my pocket and yes i kept asking why? . Little did i know that instead of asking why, i was supposed to say Father may your will be done...i felt my efforts were wasted and my prayers were nothing but just a vain attempt..that was before i found GRACE and FAVOUR in him...i still experienced long nights,,i still cried myself to sleep yes but through it all i acquired HOPE and TRUST in GOD. Just the thought of knowing that his mercies anew every morning kept me going, now i am able to say let thy will be done Father..in the midst of all the pain i am still hopeful and i am still happy for i know that in all those circumstances, all the pain all the sufferings i am being prevented from the worst and also being prepared for something bigger and better than i hope for, i am being transformed into someone better..it is hope that keeps me going it is hope that assures me that Christ has better and bigger plans for me.it may not be now, it may not be sooner, but i know one day someday i will receive all i have ever hoped for so long as it is my Father's will and i have gained Faith along the way. Never Ever lose hope nomatter what you go through in life. All things that happen in life always remember they are for our own good...and God knows what is best for all of us,,it is said in Jeremiah 29 vs 11 that he has plans for us to prosper and not to harm us..the Lord promised to bless us with a future filled with Hope what more can we ask for. Let us all Dare to hope even when life around us seems uncertain and tentative and always think about his mercies, faithfulness and love nomatter what you go through.....God is ♥
