" Love extends an olive leaf to the loved one and says, “I have hope in you.” Love is just as quick to say, “I have hope for you.” You can say those words. You are a flood survivor. By God’s grace you have found your way to dry land. You know what it’s like to see the waters subside. And since you do, since you passed through a flood and lived to tell about it, you are qualified to give hope to someone else. "
