When True Hope Becomes Doubt

This is great news for those of us who believe and have hope in changing our lives by using the universal laws, but you're probably wondering how in the world can hope become doubt.

Believe It Or Not It All Depends On How You Use The Word

Normally I would not make an issue of them saying this. After all, true hope is needed to make positive changes in anyone's life, but what drew my attention was not that these people said this, it was HOW they said it. When I questioned each person about it, they each told me that even though they desperately wanted these changes in their lives they had doubts about them actually taking place.

In Essence They Were Using "I Hope" To Indicate A Presence Of Doubt!

To define hope is to have a FEELING that what is wanted will happen; DESIRE accompanied by EXPECTATION. Each of these individuals did not have this feeling, desire or expectation, even though they continued to pray, affirm and expect miracles to happen in their lives!

Of course it's been a year and nothing is changing in their lives. They still want good jobs, more money, happy relationships and better health. Actually, things seem to be getting worse because they keep attracting more and more doubt, less money, no relationships and worse health.

When I tried to explain what they were doing and why these things were happening, I was met with anger and stubbornness each time. It was the classic example of telling the horse about the water, leading the horse to the water, but not being able to make him drink the water.

True Hope Has Avoided These Individual's Grasp

If you get nothing out of this article, at least listen to the video with Bob Doyle, Why Do Bad Things Happen. It doesn't have anything to do with true hope, but it does explain how we attract pain, hunger and suffering into our lives. Also, true hope or hope is mentioned 130 times in the King James version of the bible. If you're interested, please take a look at that also.

Be careful when substituting words and be very careful how you use words. Especially in conjunction with your feelings. If not, you may end up getting more of what you don't want in your life.
