This page is about hope which is necessary for our Christian life. Faith, hope and love work together. They cannot be separated. If I do not have love I am nothing and all the good works I perform will not please God. My actions reveal how much love I have.
Love always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres and never fails.
If I have faith, hope and love working together I can love my enemies, bless those who curse me, and do good to those who persecute me. Then my joy is so great that it cannot be expressed in words. Without faith I cannot please God, for faith in Christ is being sure of what I hope for and certain of what I do not see. God allows problems in my life to test my faith. Therefore, I consider it pure joy when I face many trials because I know that the test of my faith develops perseverance.
