Quotes about Hope

Our giants keep taunting us, so we need to hold God at his word: that he is already victorious. We need to believe that our pain can be overcome. We need to remind ourselves that those giants don't need to be giants any longer.

Jesus is a dream restorer. Your life might look different now than when it was born in your heart, but heaven still has a plan for you.

You should never count God out. What He has planned and dreamed for your life far exceeds the circumstances of your day. He is always at work, painting on a canvas bigger than we can see or imagine. Not only is this true today; it's been true of our entire story to this point.

I know a lot of us feel like that. We come to a place where we're walking through the fires and trials of life, and we don't know where to turn. What we need is a fresh start. We need our story to go in a new direction. What we need is a comeback of our own.

As long as our eyes are on the problem, and the solution lies within ourselves, the X's are going to pile up on the calendars of our fight, marking the days little to nothing has changed. But all that changes the day Jesus enters our Valley of Elah. The moment we stop staring at our giant and lock eyes with Jesus. The moment our hope shifts from us to him.

no matter what we might be walking through, we can still have confidence that Jesus is the God of the comeback and that our story is not over as long as Jesus is in it.

Don't dismiss the idea of a comeback if you're someone who is already saved and walking faithfully with the Lord. You may need a fresh start after you find that your dreams—holy dreams—have crashed into pieces at your feet.

Whatever you need to come back from, I want you to hear this: if Jesus is alive from the dead—and he is—and if Jesus has conquered death and hell—and he has—then it's possible for every person to have a comeback story.

He wants you to understand that there are no wasted moments. For His glory He uses everything that's happened, everything that's happening, and everything that will happen - past, present, and future.

I know it's difficult. But, yes, God is working even in the midst of whatever problem you're going through. He's working in both seen and unseen ways. He's working to put you on a path that you'll never regret, a path of extraordinary goodness that's a reflection of his character. In the meantime, your task is to dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness.

Chances are good that you once had a dream—a big, noble, beautiful dream—that you could envision coming true, but that dream was snatched away. An experience like that leaves you longing for a comeback.

what God did for us is greater than what anyone could do against us.
