Let Hope Shape Our Futures
“Let your hopes, not your hurts, shape your future.” - Robert H. Schuller
Unfortunately, very few of us make it through life without pain and disappointment. For some of us, it was the betrayal of family and friends. Some of us have had people we loved betray our trust in ways that devastated us. Some of us have faced injustice, at work, at school, in life. For some of us the injustice is both pervasive and enduring.
It's easy to become overwhelmed by the weight of our pain, our anger, our resentment, our bitterness. Sometimes we are tempted harden ourselves. We are tempted to numb ourselves. We are tempted to give into our circumstances. We must never give up. We must never give in.
We must let go of our pain and anger. We must let go of bitterness. Every decision we make instead must be centered in faith, hope and love. It is our hope for a better life for ourselves, our families, our communities, our nations, and the world that must drive our behavior.
Peace be with you.
