But faith can help people remain hopeful while they work through those challenges.
Sometimes the victory we are waiting for is not something dramatic. It can be receiving an encouraging message, finding a new opportunity, reconnecting with someone we love, overcoming a difficult period, or simply waking up with renewed strength.
If today has been difficult, don’t assume that tomorrow will be the same. Give yourself permission to hope again. Make your plans, do what is within your control, and leave room for possibilities you cannot yet see.
You can also use difficult moments as an opportunity to become stronger. Every challenge can teach patience, perseverance, gratitude, and courage. Progress may be slow, but slow progress is still progress.
Take a moment tonight to think about something you are grateful for. Think about the people who support you, the opportunities you still have, and the things you hope to accomplish.
