Thank God for my pessimism. I’ve been such a better person since I lost hope.

Let your failures & challenges strip you down to utter & sheer dependence on God alone. Trust Him that you will one day again ascend to the heights. Losing to Gain!

Proverbs 13:12
Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life.

Habakkuk 3:17-19
Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet

I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my Savior. The Sovereign LORD is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he enables me to go on the heights.
