What is hope? What is real hope? People keep asking their-selves why their soul is so downcast, so burdened, they ask why their heart is sad, lonely, miserable.
According to Proverbs 13:12a " Hope deferred maketh the heart sick"
People keep placing their hope in things, material things. Things that can be easily taken away by people, circumstances, situations, etc. Then when that hope is taken away either immediately or slowly it makes our hearts sick with sadness, loneliness, miserableness, etc. Even if you put your hope in people they can still die, they can still abandon you, they can still be taken away. (If you want to understand more read Psalm 142)
When people have no hope their heart becomes broken and it keeps on going until in ends up in rifts. Psalm 147:3 says "He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds."
But then how do you do it? What will give us peace? Matthew 11:28 "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest."
Philippians 4:6-7 "Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus."
In short He's saying whatever worries you have big or small, needs big or small, pray it to Him, tell it to Him. Give your burdens and cares to Him. It's a simple as that and you can have that peace that surpasses all human understanding (emotions, physical pain, mental pain, etc.). Just be sure that you have a personal relationship with God, if you don't have one then why not start one with Him? Just go here Romans 10:9.
