Look Ahead with Hope

Why am I discouraged? Why is my heart so sad? I will put my hope in God! I will praise him again—my Savior and my God!—Psalm 42:11 NLT
Winter invites introspection, but sometimes when we shift inward we get bogged down by life’s disappointments. If you’re having a hard time moving past a difficult situation, try to see what you can learn from the experience. Look ahead with hope. God has great plans for you!
Heavenly Father, no matter what challenges I face, I can still rejoice in You. You are the Source of all hope. I trust Your plan.
