I am currently reading through the book of Acts in
the Bible and was really taken back by what it really means to have hope and
figured why not share what I thought about that. In Acts 16 Paul and Silas,
followers of the Lord, are on a mission to love the Romans and show them God. A
lot goes down and Paula and Silas get beaten and thrown into jail. At this
point, putting myself in their shoes, I would be pretty frustrated with where I
was based on what I was doing. Paul and Silas were serving the Lord and because
of that they were thrown into a predicament of sheer hopelessness. However,
surprisingly enough they did not dwell on their situation at hand. Instead of
being freshly beaten, locked in a prison and angry at God, Paul and Silas sat
in the cell and sung praises to God.
