All hope is not lost

     Never give up! All hope is not lost! One sincere prayer to Almighty God said earnestly from the heart is so very tender to the ears and eyes of Him who is watching. Hopelessness is not in the vocabulary of God. For He is all Hope. He wants us with Him in Heaven. He has a place reserved just for us abiding in the Golden Palace where He reigns. Never ever think you are doomed. Never give up hope in your conversion or the conversion of this world. He is Mighty and Strong and Pure and Holy. We can do all things in Him who strengthens us.

     Dark times enter into all lives. They are tests. Tests to see if we will choose Him, our Creator, or cave to the voices of the world that tell us there is no hope. Miracles are not just phenomenons. They are proof that there is a God who loves us and allows us to be everything He created us to be. But we must rely on Him and not try to take matters into our own hands. Yes, we can be his instruments, but ultimately He is the conductor. We must follow where He leads us with total surrender. Our Holy Mother Mary, is our Lady of Hope. St Jude, Saint of hopeless cases, is but one of many who intercedes for us when in dire straits,  showing Mercy on our pleas. Mary our Mother, purifies our intentions and lays them in the hands of Her beloved Son Jesus who can refuse Her nothing. Giving us peace, no matter what is decided by the Heavenly Court of God. Hope cannot be lost, even though sometimes it seems very hopeless. I believe God doesn't want us to struggle, but we lay that burden on ourselves. Because of hasty decisions or snares of temptations from evil, we weaken the voice of God within our lives. Beating us down when we don't surrender to God who is our strength. It's hard sometimes to believe or feel like things can get better. But I promise, they do and they will. Confusion comes from the evil one. Tell him to go away. Tell our Lord to speak to you only and pray for the discernment to hear only His true voice. You will know, if you pray. 

 We as humans, aren't very smart a lot of times, when we, in our needs, become hasty. Some things need more time, so that we can take full advantage of the blessings of the trial. Until the understanding of the situation is understood as God leading us to something greater, we will stunt the outcome and make it drag on and on and on. Who wants that? Not me. But often in my impatience and fear, I resume the state of hopelessness. Thankfully, my sweet Guardian Angel and Mary assure me with a tender touch that everything will be all right, even if it's not the way "I" planned the outcome. 

    Hope is an adventure. Our willingness to be patient will always have results. Whether it be peace of mind, or a miraculous cure, or maybe a blessed conversion of someone you have been praying for. We have so many helpers to help us through this life. Earthly and heavenly. We have innumerable people to help us in our cause. Like the definition states "too many to count", these Saints and Angels are at our beck and call, but we must have Hope remain beside us.

     All hope is never lost. Do not let pride or fear make you resist the help we gain when relying on the only Hope that will never let us down. Our Lady, the Angels and the Saints are waiting for our true surrender to the same God they love and adore. Stay in the family who's open arms are waiting for us to fall into. For all hope is not lost with them, ready to catch us.
