Hope changes everythingYou can grow in your "Hope Quotient"

A Biblical Parallel The Apostle Paul

2 Corinthians 11:23b-29 (NIV) I have …been in prison more frequently,

been flogged more severely, and been exposed to death again and again.

Five times I received from the Jews the forty lashes minus one. Three times I was

beaten with rods, once I was pelted with stones, three times I was shipwrecked, I spent a night and a day in the open sea.

I have been constantly on the move. I have been in danger from rivers, in danger from bandits, in danger from my fellow Jews, in

danger from Gentiles; in danger in the city, in danger in the country, in danger at sea; and

in danger from false believers

I have labored and toiled and have often gone without sleep; I have known hunger and thirst

and have often gone without food; I have been cold and naked.

Besides everything else, I face daily the pressure of my concern for all the churches. Who is weak, and I do not feel weak? Who is led into sin, and I do not inwardly burn?"
