HOPE

Viktor Frankl, an Austrian psychologist, survived many death camps of Nazi Germany. Frankl was determined to know why some survived and some did not. He looked at several factors: health, vitality, family, survival skills, intelligence. He concluded that none of these factors was primarily responsible. The single most significant factor, he observed, and which impacted survival was a sense of future vision-- the conviction that they had a mission to perform, some important work left to do. Survivors of POW camps in Vietnam reported similar experiences: a compelling, future-oriented vision was the primary force that kept many of them alive.

". . . And this hope does not disappoint. . . "
-- Romans 5:5
