“Yet I call this to mind, and therefore I have hope:” Lamentations 3:21 HCSB
Jeremiah remembers a truth about God to get him past his hurts and burdens. What does God use to bring you hope? Has he given you a truth from His word? Does He remind you of a prophesy for your future? Does He bring a friend continually into your path that will encourage the dickens out of you? Does God just touch you with His presence?
When you are facing a time when you feel there is nothing to hope for stop and count your blessings and see how good God has been to you.
“Give thanks in everything, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”
1 Thessalonians 5:18 HCSB

“Lord, how my foes increase! There are many who attack me. Many say about me, “There is no help for him in God.”
Selah
But You, Lord, are a shield around me, my glory, and the One who lifts up my head. I cry aloud to the Lord, and He answers me from His holy mountain.
Selah
I lie down and sleep; I wake again because the Lord sustains me. I am not afraid of the thousands of people who have taken their stand against me on every side. Rise up, Lord! Save me, my God! You strike all my enemies on the cheek; You break the teeth of the wicked. Salvation belongs to the Lord; may Your blessing be on Your people.
Selah”

“I am writing to you, little children, because your sins have been forgiven because of Jesus’ name.
I am writing to you, fathers, because you have come to know the One who is from the beginning.
I am writing to you, young men, because you have had victory over the evil one.
I have written to you, children, because you have come to know the Father.
I have written to you, fathers, because you have come to know the One who is from the beginning.
I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, God’s word remains in you, and you have had victory over the evil one.”
