To the Scripture writers, hope is the absolute expectation of coming good based on the character of God. It’s bedrock trust that no matter how many wrong turns we make or setbacks we face, we can sleep soundly tonight because we know that, one day, Yahweh will eradicate evil forever. He will remake the world into a garden city, a second Eden. He will bless “all peoples on earth” through his Son, Jesus. And it’s all because Yahweh is “abounding in love and faithfulness.”
Amen!!!
