It's Not Over Until It's Over

Have you lost heart over a personal dream or a promise from God which hasn't been fulfilled? Yet to the best of your knowledge, does this dream fit your gifts and interests well? Is it a good match for your life as God has designed it? It may seem that pessimism about the future is your best defense against further disappointment. But keep in mind the benefits of hope, and the reasons for staying hopeful - God delivers. Be careful not to write history with a gloomy conclusion before it happens. Stay open to opportunities to move toward your dream that God may make possible for you.
