How Faith, Hope, and Dreams Are Connected

I’ve been thinking lately about faith, hope, and dreams, and how they’re connected.

The Bible says: “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen” (Hebrews 11:1 NKJV).

When we hope for something, isn’t that similar to having a dream?

We hope someday to have a house of our own.

We hope to travel to Europe.

We hope to find a job where we can utilize our skills and fill fulfilled.

We hope to retire and have time to pursue hobbies.

We can hope all we want, but in order to see those dreams become reality, we also need to have faith that by the grace of God and our own efforts we can experience them.

When people are struggling—whether those challenges are due to damaged relationships, finances, poor health, or anything else—hope makes all the difference.

Hope changes everything.

Hope gives those struggling the ability to dream again.

Faith provides the power to act on that dream.

Faith, hope, and dreams—bound together.
