Good day steemians,
Today morning in Uganda here , it is 9:50am East African Time. Some thing is upon my heart about you.
Sometimes life seems as if it is hard, things sometimes seems dark! As if you don't know what you are doing and where you are going!
Today, I have good news for you and please read this to the end! You are about to see a new thing in your life. It is about having hope, key element in life.

Your success is around the corner!
That thing you have been wanting is coming to you.
Cheer up my friend, rejoice because you are not forgotten. Your family might have forgotten you, even your workmates, however, that's not the end of life dear!
You can go higher in life. The impossible can become possible today. Raise your heart and see with your eyes the goodness and brightness of your future, of your family.
You can make it in that thing you are doing! Have hope and believe that you will achieve in life.
Let me quote this passage of the bible,
Job 14 (NKJV)
- "For there is hope for a tree, If it is cut down, that it will sprout again, And that its tender shoots will not cease.
- Though its root may grow old in the earth, And its stump may die in the ground,
- Yet at the scent of water it will bud And bring forth branches like a plant.
We can learn from the tree and its lifecycle. The tree undergoes different conditions to grow and become great❕
From the time its planted to the time its cut down, alot of experiences happen to it!
Firstly, the seedling experiences stress when its transplanted. It changes its environment and it goes into another field where exposure to sunlight, rains, snow is unavoidable.
Now, you see and follow....
In all that, the tree still stays strong and it doesn't complain! Compare that to your life sometimes.
You are moved from one stage of life to another, you change your status, position at workplace, even experiencing sickness at times, maybe you have had an accident and life seemed as if it had ended! How did you feel?
That's how life is sometimes, however such moments needs you gain hope in your heart.
Hope is a positive expectation.
What do you expect today? Do you expect promotion, salary increase, a wedding ceremony, or a baby or even healing? You can have it today!
Let me quote this psalm again...;
Psalms 145 (NKJV)
- He will fulfill the desire of those who fear Him; He also will hear their cry and save them.
- The LORD is near to all who call upon Him, To all who call upon Him in truth.
- The LORD preserves all who love Him, But all the wicked He will destroy.
I can see something there, fear of God! Then desire... Desire is the fuel for pursuits. Your desire will make you pursue what you are expectant of!
Secondly, the tree experiences pests and diseases. This reduces its productivity.
Thirdly, the tree is cut down.Things seem as if everything have ended ..When you look at it, it has lost its height, its great strength,even its leaves and branches. However, it does not loose hope.
Something on it has remained, it is called a stump. With that, it can regain its life back when the conditions are favourite.
So, there is something inside you that acts like a tree stump. It is called Hope. It gives life to whatever seems dead.
It is called positive expectation and that's what gives a tree a fresh meaning in the world.
