       It is true that when the worst has happened in life, there is only one place the future can go. There can only be better days on the horizon. That’s the hope everyone should have after feeling hopeless about a life situation, a disappointment or tragedy. Indeed, tragedies and disheartening things are going to take place in life—in everyone’s life—and there’s no way to avoid them. No one is exempt. However, there is one thing that we have control over, one area where we get to make the choice, and where we can make the choice. We don’t have to let the bad things that happen in our lives keep us down, or allow us to become depressed and despondent. We can choose to think positively about our lives, and move forward with a hopeful and optimistic attitude. The Apostle Paul called God the “God of hope” in Romans 15:13 (ESV). Understanding God as the God of hope indeed gives us great hope in our circumstances.
