Hope is not Just For the Dark Times-It Is for All Times

It is helpful to avoid seeing hope as one dramatic decision you make, but rather as the multiplied effect of many very small, individual everyday choices.

Choosing to get out of the house and walk the dog, choosing to apply for a new job, choosing to spot new potential and opportunities while still in the midst of your problems—these everyday choices matter.

Hope is for now. It is for this very day. You can benefit right now from this energizing, life-giving virtue. Don’t wait another minute to orient your perspective toward hope.

Hope is not just for dark times—it is for all times.

Don’t postpone being optimistic until everything in your life feels good. Start today!

Believe in the best. Develop optimism. Expect good things. Choose positivity. Laugh. Dream of the brightest future you can imagine. That vision will change your life now, regardless of what happens next.


“God blesses those who patiently endure testing and temptation. Afterward they will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.”

“So the Lord blessed Job in the second half of his life even more than in the beginning. For now he had 14,000 sheep, 6,000 camels, 1,000 teams of oxen, and 1,000 female donkeys. He also gave Job seven more sons and three more daughters.”
