Attribute of hope

T
Tom Long

The document discusses the biblical story from 2 Kings 7 about how King Jehoram of Israel reacted with anger and hopelessness to a prophecy of future prosperity, while Elisha and others maintained hope in God's word. It highlights how God often answers prayers in unexpected ways using unlikely sources, and how maintaining an attitude of hope even in dark times can lead to recognizing God's answers when they come.
