Hope Is Not A Wish!

Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life.  Proverbs 13:12

Most hope is a "hopeless hope".  It is not hope at all.  It is a wish.  It is a desire for something to happen.  Unfortunately, most hope is more linked to "crossed fingers" than the Cross. 

Lord, thank you for providing hope and please help me to truly have hope.
