Pro 13:12 ‘Hope deferred maketh the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life.’
Nothing is more grievous than the disappointment of a raised expectation that proves false. Hope that is deferred makes the heart sick, fretful and peevish, and higher the expectation is raised greater the heart sinks. Therefore, it’s wisdom not to promise ourselves any great matters from man or this temporal world, doing so is your own vexation. The hearts only hope can only be in the One who can and does keep His promises, knowing there’s no real hope without a real promise.
Hope hinges on the One who made the promise; know your source, know your hope… HSAY
