What do Habakkuk, Job and the Good Thief (who was crucified with Christ) have in common? They are all amazing examples of the supernatural virtue of Hope. Today, following their example, together with the example of the Seven Maccabean brothers, I address the meaning of the theological Virtue of Hope. I also suggest great ways in which you can practice it in your daily life.
- The topics discussed can be found in the Catechism, numbers 1817-1821.
- You should definitely read the Encyclical “Spe Salvi” (Saved in Hope) by Pope Benedict XVI. It’s amazingly enlightening. You will not regret having read it!!
