Sis, I know the world can feel heavy—like you’re carrying everyone else’s burdens and barely holding onto your own. But let me remind you: hope isn’t just wishful thinking. Hope is a weapon. It’s the tool you use to fight back when life tries to wear you down and convince you to quit.

Scripture says,
“But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.” — Isaiah 40:31

Hope isn’t soft or naïve. It’s powerful. It’s what helps you take one more step, even when you’re tired. It’s what keeps you reaching for more, even when the world tells you to settle. Even if all you have is a mustard seed of hope, that’s enough. Baby steps are still steps. You are allowed to make yourself a priority. You deserve rest, joy, and peace.

So today, pick up your hope. Let it shield you from doubt and push you forward. You are not alone, and you are so worthy of everything good that’s coming.
