Sometimes that's what prayer is--simply inviting God to join us where we actually are, not because He isn't already here but because inviting Him reminds us it's true.

About This Quote

Hope is a wonderful thing. It keeps us going when we are down and out. If you have hope, you can keep going even when things seem impossible. Letting go of hope is a dangerous thing though.

When you stop believing in hope, you stop believing in God. Without hope, life is full of despair and hopelessness. Hope is a powerful force that keeps us going when we feel like giving up.

We need to be careful that we don't let our lives become so bleak that we can no longer find any reason to fight.
