Live Hope Minute: Become A Champion Of HopeSample
Tempted to Give Up on Your Dreams?
It can be difficult to have a dream—especially if there are people in your life who think you should give up. I’ve been told on more than one occasion that I should dream more realistically. There’s not anything realistic about a dream—if there is, you’re probably not dreaming big enough! But it’s important to have hope to hang on to.
I love what author Ayn Rand wrote: “Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark, in the hopeless swamps of the approximate, the not-quite, the not-yet, the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish.” We should not give up just because we haven’t reached our goal. Hope says that this story is still being written and it’s going to be something good because God’s in it. Don’t quit just because you can’t see the finish line. It might be around the next corner.
What’s the benefit of giving up on your dreams? What do you think God thinks about your dreams?

About this Plan
As we see chaos in the world around us, we want to have hope. But what is hope and where does it come from? Hope is more than simple optimism that things get better or a finger-crossed wishing that things go our way. Hope can be the most powerful force in life. Live Hope Minute explores the life-transforming concept of true hope and how to keep a godly perspective in our current circumstances.
