When Hope Isn't Keeping Up

#141

Friend,

I know we said that it would get better, but it’s not getting any better. You’ve heard our encouragement:

• “Give it time.”

• “This worked for me.”

• “It’s only a season.”

But it’s hard to keep hope when hope isn’t keeping up.

Having hope is easy when hope gives you reasons to trust it. But hoping becoming wishing, becomes demoralizing after a while. Now, I could say things I believe like “it is always darkest before the dawn” or the “breakthru is just after the breakdown.” But instead, I’ll say,

“That sucks, my friend. I’m still here.”

Love,

Aaron
