“Hope deferred makes the heart sick...” Proverbs 13:12 NASB
It’s a new year and it has gotten me thinking about hope. I’m sure most of us had things happen last year that were not what we wanted or expected and are hoping that certain things are better this year. I think that is probably what drives New Year resolutions - the desire for things to be better, for us to do better. At the core of wanting better is expectation. Expectation is the essence of hope. And hope is what keeps us moving forward.
