I Am Hope Full

Sometimes everything feels too hard.

It can feel impossible.
It can feel hopeless.

You can feel empty.

You might feel like the good things are far away.
Like nothing is changing.
Like you’ve been waiting a long time.

It can feel like darkness is surrounding you.

The feeling sounds like this:

“Nothing will get better.”
“I don’t see a way forward.”
“Maybe this is just how it is now.”

You might still do your normal things.
You might still smile sometimes.
But inside, it feels heavy.

Days can start to look the same.
Tomorrow can feel just like today.
And your heart can feel tired of hoping.

You’re not doing anything wrong.

This feeling comes when you’ve been strong for a long time.
When you’ve waited.
When you’ve cared.
When you’ve tried to keep going.

It doesn’t mean there is nothing ahead.

It just means you’ve been carrying a lot.

Here is something gentle and true.

Hope is not something you have to make.
It doesn’t come from trying harder.
It doesn’t come from seeing the whole picture.

Hope can be very small.

It can be quiet.
It can sit with you
even when nothing looks different yet.

You don’t need to feel excited.
You don’t need to feel sure.
You don’t need to see the next step.

You are not stuck forever.
You are not forgotten.
And this moment is not the end of your story.

Right now,
I am holding you.

I am giving you My peace.

I love you, always.

Peace, be still.
