“Where there is hope, there is faith. Where there is faith, miracles happen.” Meme

I have often wondered what the difference is between faith and hope. I am beginning to understand that hope is what we expect to come to us in the future while faith is a confident trust that God will bring it about. Hope has to do with what we are waiting for. Faith is who we trust to bring it to us. Faith and hope are joined to one another. They are both joined to God who is the substance of our future, and also the cause of it.  Faith believes that what we hope for today is our reality tomorrow.
“Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.” Hebrews 11.1 “Conversations Within” ts 4/9/2017
