We have been trained to see everything from a negative side-view. Governments, money, morality, social issues, standard of living.
I believe that thinking and speaking with a dark foreboding expectation of the future sets things in motion so that our decisions begin creating the very things we say we dread. Our expectation of the future is causing us to build that future.
However, the opposite is also true. If we can turn our gaze on Jesus, our expectations can be adjusted so they are positive.
Hope of the future sets the ball rolling. When we believe everything is working for the good of those who love God and are called according to His purposes, our individual decisions begin to look different. We are falling into plans for a hopeful future, and, in doing so we are helping to create that future as an optimistic one.
