try hope

when i say i have an expectation upon you, it feels so routine, rule-abiding and judgemental at times

however, when i have hope in you, it spells out possibility, excitement and promise : )

it tells of the ability that is beyond your current capacity.

it means i look forward to tomorrow and see you becoming better than who you are today

because in the heart of God is this word - hope.

tied with hope is love...

and the people around us may fail, the things we trust in can fail as well, institutions where we think we can rely on may crumble and fall...

but love never fails
it believes all things
hopes all things

No matter what the circumstances, you are still a friend and always will be. nothing you do or not do can change that fact.

you've tried so hard to be the best you can... that's exercising expectation and measuring it with results and achievements, monuments of efforts that have been exerted through pain, sweat and tears.

try hope.
it means jumping off a cliff not knowing how far away you are from the bottom.

taste hope.
its not the taste of salty sweat in your mouth, but its a taste of sheer freedom.

experience hope.
let it transform your whole value system from works to grace.
