Hope and Resolve

I wrote this in my journal tonight. It's possible someone else may find this useful.

I think that's what brings me hope. Maybe it's just resolve. And maybe those are the same thing. People who want to do better, and see better things come for the people around us. Faith in a God who loves us and has not abandoned us, even when people use his name to justify evil. Regardless, I'm not alone in this, even though a lot of people want to make use feel like we are.

The simple reality is, what I'm standing against is just evil, and the one thing about evil is, it's boring. No sense of humor, no love, and thus no staying power. They'll be gone at some point and, Lord willing, we'll still be standing.
