This week we’re talking about getting your hopes up again! When we’re in such a strange time where our routines are off and plans are ruined it’s important that we find something to hope for!
I went on a walk with a dear friend a few weeks ago. And I started talking about all my stress and worries. I found myself complaining about things that just keep getting put off and getting canceled. Even though I know why and I understand that it’s all a bunch of first world problems, I couldn’t help but vent. And my friend looked at me and said: “You have to have something to look forward to, you need to plan a trip or have something to hope for!”
And it gave me a big AHA moment. We so often don’t get our hopes up because we’re afraid of getting hurt. I have to be aware and say “No thank you Satan!” I don’t need to expect the worse to happen. We’ve all had those Debbie downer friends and that’s not who we should strive to be! We should work on getting our hopes up for good opportunities and not let fear stand in our way!
Leaders pivot! Don’t stop letting yourself get your hopes up out of fear!
I’ll leave you with this verse that has been my heart all year but has more meaning than ever!
“Against all hope, Abraham in hope believed and so became the father of many nations, just as it had been said to him, “So shall your offspring be.” Romans 4:18
