Hope is not found in pretending the spiral is not real.

Ahab was the worst. The failure was real. The damage mattered. And still, God was not less God in the valley than He was on the hill.

That is the strange mercy of the story: God does not wait for perfect people before He moves toward them.

Your spiral may be honest, but it is not ultimate. Your failure may be real, but it is not stronger than mercy.

Hope begins here: God is still God.

even if the outcome never comes.
even if the story turns in a direction no one would have chosen.
even if certainty never shows up.

would love still be worth choosing?
would goodness still matter?
would hope still have weight?

if belief only works when the outcome is certain,
was it ever belief at all, or just strategy?
