Hope |
|
Hope is practiced through the virtue of patience, which continues to do good even in the face of apparent failure; and through the virtue of humility which accepts God’s mystery and trusts him even at times of darkness.

Christian hope, founded on Christ, is not an illusion but, as the Letter to the Hebrews says, "we have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul" (Heb 6: 19), an anchor that penetrates Heaven where Christ has gone before us.

It's never to late to touch the heart of another, nor is it ever in vain. In this way we further clarify an important element of the Christian concept of hope.

The drama faced by the disciples of Emmaus appears to mirror the situation of many Christians of our own time. It seems as if the hope of faith has failed. Faith itself is in crisis because of negative experiences that make us feel we have been abandoned by the Lord. But this road to Emmaus along which we are walking can become a path of purification and maturity for our belief in God.

“I will see you again and your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take your joy from you” (John 16:22).
We must think along these lines if we want to understand the object of Christian hope, to understand what it is that our faith, our being with Christ, leads us to expect.

What are you seeking? What is God whispering to you? The hope which never disappoints is Jesus Christ.

Hope |
|
We need the greater and lesser hopes that keep us going day by day. But these are not enough without the great hope, which must surpass everything else. This great hope can only be God, who encompasses the whole of reality and who can bestow upon us what we, by ourselves, cannot attain.
