Summary: We all have expectations. Some are realized and some are not. When our expectations come face-to-face with real-life challenges, it can batter our dreams. Storm clouds of bitterness, anger, and cynicism form in our lives, and we forfeit hope. But God is attempting to build hope in your life. Fighting for hope is not about denying reality; it is about embracing reality. Where there is hope, there is a healthy heart. Where there is a healthy heart, there is a healthy emotional climate.
