Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. – Hebrews 11:1
Faith is the most powerful resource you possess, because it’s how you receive what God has made available to you.
Faith is the substance of the things you hope for.
Which means that the limiting factor of Faith is your hope.
Without hope, Faith has got nothing to work with.
Hope is the straw that Faith turns into bricks for making the invisible…tangible.
So the most important thing you can do is remain hopeful; full of hope.
And in practical terms, this means embracing the identity of being a Hope fool.
You see, when you start hoping for things that don’t match your circumstances and defy the expectations of others, you will be shamed and branded a fool.
The people around you will insist they mean well, that they’re only “playing Devil’s advocate” and push you to be “pragmatic/realistic”.
But this isn’t about how you’re going to achieve what you hope for.
This is just about your desire for something…your hope.
Tactics and strategies can be debated, discarded and done over.
But regardless of what is or isn’t happening around you, don’t let anyone or anything steal any of your hope.
Stay hope full as a hope fool.
Your faith is counting on this.
