Hope may sometimes be hidden, misplaced, or misunderstood … but it is always available.
HOPE MISUNDERSTOOD
We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope.

HOPE
1. A feeling of expectation and desire for a certain thing to happen.
2. A feeling of trust.

I am with you. This is not the end.
Hope is not founded in fantasy.
It is forged in reality.

HOPE MISPLACED
Where have you placed your hope?
HEADS: Hope is trusting God about future events in the present moment.
TAILS: Fear is trusting our anxieties about future events in the present moment.

Fear only has the power we give it. Hope works the same way…Hope is what we'll end up with when fear isn't calling the shots anymore.

Sometimes God lets us lose hope for a moment, so we'll retrace our steps and find Him all over again.

HOPE HIDDEN
Sometimes we ask God for help and he gives us hope instead. Not because they are different, but because they are the same.

I HEARD THE BELLS ON CHRISTMAS DAY
And in despair, I bowed my head;
“There is no peace on earth,” I said;
“For hate is strong,
And mocks the song
Of peace on earth, good-will to men!”
Then pealed the bells more loud and deep:
“God is not dead, nor doth He sleep;
The Wrong shall fail,
The Right prevail,
With peace on earth, good-will to men.”

The Wrong shall fail,
The Right prevail,
With peace on earth, good-will to men.”
“When we recall Christmas past, we usually find that the simplest things–not the great occasions–give off the greatest glow of happiness.”
Bob Hope
“Christmas may be a day of feasting, or of prayer, but always it will be a day of remembrance–a day in which we think about everything we have ever loved.”

“Christmas: the only time of year you can sit in front of a dead tree eating candy out of socks.”
