this from 1986, on hope

 

 “ Ordinarily, when we express hope, we are expressing uncertainty. But this is not the distinctive biblical meaning of hope… biblical hope is not just a desire for something good in the future, but rather, biblical hope is a confident expectation and desire for something good in the future. Biblical hope not only desires something good for the future — it expects it to happen. And it not only expects it to happen — it is confident that it will happen…” Piper
