Romans 12:12 Rejoice in hope, endure in persecution, persist in prayer. Today, we discuss the second of our Core Exercises: Prayer.

Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is being sure of what we hope for,being convinced of what we do not see. {NET} Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for,the evidence of things not seen. {KJV} Throughout MilktoMeat we explore the relationship of Hope, Faith, and Love.

Today we discuss Hope. Hope is not “wishful thinking.” Hope is confident expectation. For those who are following Jesus – He is our HOPE! As we have already heard, Hope is the movement in our “depths” that leads us to faith.
