5 Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us. Romans 5:5
Hope is stronger than faith. Although it is what fuels our faith, we need to have both. One should not be independent of the other. The Lord provides for us His blessed assurance that no matter what we are facing or how dim the situation may appear, He is our God of miracles and nothing is impossible for Him. Instead of thinking how big the problem is, think how much bigger our God is. And He can do all things. So don't you worry what others think if your choice is to stand in your beliefs and stay put in your faith. My husband and I faced one of life's greatest challenges together that lasted exactly three years, yes, 36 months. And the word faith was pressed on my heart all that time for I knew my God had everything under His control and He was our guide, not this world. So despite all the negative obstacles thrown at us to wear us down, our faith grew and our hope stayed strong and we never gave up and we bared witness to His greatest work that no one could deny was from the hand of Christ. For no one could do what He did in our lives and God can do that for you too. Just hold on to your faith and His Word that He will honor your obedience, your trust in Him and prove your hope was not in vain. Trust and believe and stand strong and all things will work together for His good. Hope will never disappoint!
