Despair!

Despair is defined as the complete loss or absence of hope. 
Unfortunately, recent world events continue to press upon us, leading most of us to despair.
But it is also a GREAT time.
So… how could this possibly be a great time? 
This is a great time, because we can find out what we really believe. We can find out if we truly believe.
NOT because we will no longer have despair. NOT because we will no longer battle mentally. 
But, because there is hope; Even if not in this world, there is hope in the next.
Psalms 40:1-3
