Hope deferred maketh the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life.
- Proverbs 13:12

Hoping in nothing...

Hoping someone will change and they never change - is sickening. Time passes, the sun comes up, and then the sun goes down. Day after day, moment by moment until night again, and then morning - again. Mourning. Grieving someone who is still alive. Counting the years. This is what I've been doing and it has made me ill. All this time I've been hoping in nothing.

A flower that waits for the rain that never comes dies.

How can we know what is meant to be? The future knows. But the future withholds and unfolds as it is told.

I have given this particular hope to the Lord. It belongs to him, it is in his hands.

Does knowledge equal wisdom? I hope to become wiser than I was when I was young. I hope to be a new creation in Christ when all is said and done. But who will know?

I heard a lady say that there will be no change without repentance.

Should I believe people's actions? They do speak louder than words.

Without repentance there will be no change.

Finding Treasures...

And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places,
that thou mayest know that I, the Lord, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel.
— Isaiah 45:3
