There is a possibility that the future can be better or worse than now. It can still remain like the present. Your present attitude can colour your future and influence it. Depending on disposition, the future is a place you can reach out by calculated actions. It can still show up while you passively wait for it. You can seize it with hope or apprehensively arrive at it. Whichever way, it will still show up. The attitude that you exhibit determines the actions you will take to face or seize the future. People who have succeeded in life have a natural inclination of hopefulness. Those with a default option of hopelessness always complain and harvest wind and tears. The sages summarise, “There is no medicine like hope, no incentive so great, and no tonic so powerful as expectation of something tomorrow.' Tomorrow is coming, hope for it, don't despair. Hope brightens your life Erasmus Makarimayi Filled with hope, one can anticipate the good to come. One can also expect the bad to show up in what is called despair. This can also be referred to as negative hope in that the unfortunate and unwanted are deemed to occur in preponderance to the desired positive outcome. Hope and despair will be respective contrast of optimism and pessimism. Merriam-Webster dictionary describes hope as the feeling of wanting something to happen and thinking that it could happen.

There are people who always complain whether it's summer or winter, day or night, sunny or on rain day. Resist and desist from that folly. Hope is your launchpad; choose it. Be instructed by Hebrews 6:19a which teaches. 'Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast.' Hope solidifies and anchors your now and secures your future. By its very nature hope concerns the future. Romans 8:24-25 explains, '[24] For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? [25] But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.' Naturalistically, hope is wishful thinking about something good happenin
South Africa's chief justice on Friday vehemently defended a prayer he made against \"satanic\" Covid-19 vaccines, seeming to refer to a conspiracy theory that they could \"infuse 666\" into people's DNA.
Mogoeng Mogoeng, a devout Christian, came under strong criticism on social media following the prayer at an event in Johannesburg on Thursday to honour people who died from Covid-19 in Africa's hardest-hit country.
\"I lockout every demon of Covid-19, I lock out any vaccine that is not of you, if there be any vaccine that is of the devil meant to infuse 666 in the lives of people, meant to corrupt your DNA,\" he said in the prayer.
On Friday he told a media conference that he would not be dissuaded from speaking against or praying against possible \"satanic\" vaccines.
\"You can't say we must, as Christians, just fold our arms and say 'whatever people come with' is fine. No. We can't,\" he said.
\"If there is a vaccine with 666, I want God to destroy it. If there is any vaccine meant to corrupt the DNA of people, I'm asking God to interrupt it. Any clean vaccine, they must produce it quickly,\" he said.
On Wednesday South Africa declared that it had entered a second wave of the pandemic as the number of new infections surged, with nearly 837,000 cumulative cases and more than 22,700 deaths.
The government has warned against spreading misinformation about the coronavirus, as it waits to secure its first vaccine doses through the COVAX global distribution scheme.
But Mogoeng said he was unfazed by any backlash and that nothing stopped him from commenting on any issues because of his judicial responsibilities.
\"This is a free country. I'm not going to be silenced. I don't care about the consequences,\" he said.
In June this year the judge sparked an outcry for remarks seen as pledging support for Israel.
\"I cannot, as a Christian, do anything other than love and pray for Israel,\" he said then.

The court's order was its second this week rebuffing Republican requests that it get involved in the 2020 election outcome and overturn the will of voters as expressed in an election regarded by both Republican and Democratic officials as free and fair. The justices turned away an appeal […]
