Hope Comes
Sometimes it feels like there's no hope. Thankfully, feelings can be misleading. There is always hope because God is good and He loves you. He has your best interest in mind, even when unfair things happen. When people mistreat you and take advantage of you, the Lord sees it all and intends to carry out His justice in the end. When you have said and done all you can, you need to let go and rest in HIM.
Here are some verses of encouragement and hope:
Psalm 84:11 says, "For the Lord God is a sun and a shield; the Lord bestows favor and honor; no good thing does he withhold from those whose walk is blameless."
Psalm 85:1 says, "You showed favor to your land, O Lord; you restored the fortunes of Jacob."
Psalm 86:5-7 says, "You are forgiving and good, O Lord, abounding in love to all who call to you. Hear my prayer, O Lord; listen to my cry for mercy. In the day of my trouble I will call to you, for you will answer me."
Psalm 89:5-6 says, "The heavens praise your wonders, O Lord, your faithfulness too, in the assembly of the holy ones. For who in the skies above can compare with the Lord? Who is like the Lord among the heavenly beings?"
