HOPE: how we and our world need it!
Clement Harrold continues: “If faith is a bold transformation for our intellect, then hope is the same for our will. Without hope, our faith risks becoming sterile, inanimate, lifeless and disengaged (since faith can remain purely intellectual). Faith without hope is an exposed and endangered faith. Indeed, faith without hope is exactly the kind of lifeless faith which St. James warns us about: ’Faith, by itself, if it has no works, is dead.’” (Jam 2:17).
