[Abba San]

Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life. Proverbs 13:12 (NIV)

When hope is crushed, the heart is crushed, but a wish come true fills you with joy. Proverbs 13:12 (TEV)

Unrelenting disappointment leaves you heartsick, but a sudden good break can turn life around. Proverbs 13:12 (MSG)

Same verse - three versions. How true this is - for the Christian and the non-Christian. All the tough times can be turned around so quickly by seeing God's hand at work in our lives.

 

[Atown]

i recently found this in my studies and it really made me think that, ya sometimes God may so no to what we are hoping for, but in that we can be really fickle sometimes, but in the thought process that the same hope that was deferred will eventually come try, filling with joy is a pretty awesome feeling

 

[Abba San]

Amen!
