       So, let us get started off by talking about an attitude of hopelessness that Satan wants us to have. I want to note, first, that hopelessness crops up easily in our lives when we lack patience. In many situations in our lives, it takes time to see progress, to see the results that we want to see, and to reach the goal we want to reach. We may try to do something, and fail the first time. We may try a second time, and then have little progress. And if we are impatient, that attitude of hopelessness will creep into the picture. We will think, “I’ve tried and I’m not getting anywhere. This situation is hopeless.” Satan will drill that thought into our minds, and keep trying to tell us things will never be the way we want to see them. But we have to keep trying, if we believe it is God’s will, what we have peace about in knowing what God wants in this particular area or situation. When we maintain our peace and patience, hopelessness gets pushed out of the picture.
