How Do I Hope?

For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. —Jeremiah 29:11 (NKJ)

Dream without limits

The Limitation of a bad beginning
Cultural Dreams vs Kingdom Dreams

Now Jabez was more honorable than his brothers, and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, “Because I bore him in pain.”

And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying, “Oh, that You would bless me indeed, and enlarge my territory, that Your hand would be with me, and that You would keep me from evil, that I may not cause pain!” So God granted him what he requested. —Chronicles 4:9-10 (NKJ)
Limitations of other’s opinion

Walk without doubting

Fight without fear

“The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. —John 10:10 (NKJ)

Intimidation (Fear)
Incrimination (Guilt)
Negotiation (Compromise)
