Anticipate

Now is the time to look for the positive in this negative environment. If you watch the news for even two minutes you will have your fill of fear and defeat before you even realize what’s being poured into you. We have to remember however the news is merely a report of “today”, it’s not the truth of “tomorrow”.

Let’s contemplate what that means in the deeper places of our hearts. No one can survive without hope. We are designed to continually drink from a place of hope. Without it we die. Every one of us has met someone who has given themselves over to the lie of “today”! There is a word in our vocabulary we should look at closely. We need to know it because it’s time we live for “tomorrow” and the truth of what is to come.

  1. This is very true. I think the media holds little to no truth but in this blog you are spot on. What is here and now is up for anger, hatred and disbelief. The truth of the economy, our country and our people is in question (as it should be). While our minds and hearts are played with by politicians and cooperate tycoons, are hope can remain. Be your hope in God, the universe, Buddha or your family alone; hope is the key now. If we do not anticipate the future but hope for it, perhaps change can be made.

    Well said mom.
