Third Sunday of Advent

Question of the Week
December 13

Hope is generally not an issue when things are going well - with the exception that we may hope things continue to go that way. Hope seems to surface more frequently in the midst of difficulties when we actually wish things could be different. Certainly Jesus was a person of hope - but His life ended in derision and apparent suffering both in body and spirit. This presents the question of why hope if God is in charge anyway? Have you been able to bring hope to someone even though you were not able to change the circumstances that caused their suffering? If so, can you describe and share what happened?
