In short
Christian hope is not wishful thinking; it is trust in a God who is faithful and a Savior who conquered death. In Jesus you are given a hope that circumstances cannot take away, because it rests on Him, not on you.When everything feels dark, hope has to come from outside us. Christians find it in the God who raises the dead and keeps His promises. He does not always change the circumstance at once, but He is present in it, and He is working all things toward good for those who love Him.
You can bring your despair to Him honestly, right now.
