Why do some people have HOPE and others don't?

I have noted that phenomenon often. I love the definition I heard for hope once, "Hope is God's however". When hard things happen, God will always follow with, a however...I can help you get through it and even help you see life good again. I do like that and has been my experience often.

Would it be that people's life experiences, good or challenging, directly measure ones amount of hope? I don't know, there seem to be "well off people" pretty hopeless and destitute others very hopeful. How does one grow in hope?

Let us know what you think:) Peace out and peace within, your Sis' Becky
