Signs
I saw this slogan today on a church sign:
Ugh. How depressing. If I merely had a "hope" that God would hear me, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't even bother. Fortunately, I am assured that God not only hears my prayers – each and every one of them – but that God even hears and understands those "sighs too deep for words" that nobody else would even recognize as prayers.
We persist in prayer
because of the hope
that God will hear us.
because of the hope
that God will hear us.

Thanks for this, Cranmer49. I hope the sign-maker had your understanding of the meaning of "hope" in the NT.
