When Hope Is Realized

"Hope that is seen is not hope, for when a man sees a thing does he hope for it? Apostle Paul Romans8:24 When you receive the thing you hoped for, should you keep waiting, hoping? I hope not! When there is no more pain, there is no more hope, when a pain free world is the reality So...give me please a world with no hope. When there is no more war, there is no more hope, for peace is reality, So...give me please a world with no hope. When there is no more hatred, there is no more hope, because love is the reality, So...give me please a world with no hope. When there is no more poverty, there is no more hope, satisfaction is the reality, So...give me please a world with no hope. Can you imagine a world, where we don't just hope for peace, love, the end of pain and suffering, the end of war, but it is the reality? That's what it means to live in a world with no hope! Will you be there? Can you see it with the eyes of faith? I hope so! John Derek Hamilton November 29,2015
