Hopelessness can take on many faces, and be caused by many different reasons.  But regardless, that bitterly piercing anguish of losing hope takes our  spirit to the very depths of despair with seemingly no way out.   The paralytic had lost all hope…there was nothing left for him to do but die…but then Jesus spoke hope back into him.  You too may be facing hopelessness today…allow Jesus to speak hope back into your life right now…and believe.
