A BIT ON HOPE

Written By Ndidi Adekunle

Hope; a powerful emotion that gives us the strength and motivation to keep going through life's experiences,, believing that things will get better, that our dreams and aspirations are reachable, and there is a light at the end of the tunnel, and that a positive outcome truly, is possible.

Hope can be a source of inspiration and drive, helping us see beyond our current situation, in order to work towards a better future. It can also serve as a source of comfort and support, helping us cope with difficult situations and guiding us towards finding meaning in our lives.

One of the most powerful aspects of hope is its ability to help us overcome adversity. When faced with life's challenges, hope can give us the resilience and determination to keep going. It can help us see that there is a way through the difficulties, and that things will eventually get better.

Hope is also important for our mental health and well-being. When we have hope, we tend to have a more positive outlook on life and are more resilient in the face of adversity. We are also less likely to experience depression and other mental health issues.

However, hope is not always easy to come by, especially in difficult situations. Sometimes people may feel hopeless and helpless, and it can be hard to see a way forward. In these cases, it can be helpful to seek support from friends, family, or professional therapists or counselors.

One way to cultivate hope is to focus on the things that are going well in our lives, no matter how small; counting our blessings one by one, and being grateful for them. This can help to shift the focus from negative thoughts and feelings to more positive ones. It's also helpful to set realistic goals and to work towards achieving them.

Hope surely, is a powerful emotion that can give us the gusto to keep going through difficult times; helping us believe, that things will get better, that there is a light at the end of the tunnel, and that a positive outcome is possible. Cultivating hope is important for overall well-being and it can be done by focusing on positivity, setting goals, and practicing gratitude. Then when we need it, we, don't hesitate to reach out for support and professional help.

Ndidi Olamide Adekunle, the Lord's Handmaiden as she likes to be remembered, is first a woman hungry for the truth of God, then a loving wife to a Missionary Evangelist, mother to three growing kids, a Consultant for the Education industry in her country Nigeria, and an Intentional Parenting advocate.

In that order.

She's had her fair share of  life's trials and tests and has come to know for herself without a doubt, the efficacy of God's word given to man, and of the blood of Jesus shed for man.

Having come to understand also, that the mind and heart of Abba Father, is an intimate relationship with His people. As such, His standing plan for the restoration of all things, to man, here on earth, and ultimately in the New Creation.

Where sin abounds, His grace doth much more abound.

This she knows, is Truth and desires that all may come to the same practical understanding, and together we may walk in it, and grow in it.

So help us God.
