Hope and Faith 1/19 Thursday thoughts

Hope is always future. Faith is always now.


Someone comes to me and asks me to pray for them, and I say, "Was the prayer answered?" And they answer, "I hope it was."

Then I know it will not be answered, and I frankly tell them. "No, the Hoper's prayers are seldom answered." . . .



The Hoper is always a failure. It is the Believer that is a success -- and believing, you remember, is acting on the Word.
