faith and hope

Alma 32:21
I got to teach with the sisters today. We talked about faith. It's a huge subject. As I've gotten older I have recognized and accepted the "but if not" part of faith more. Even within that realization, faith brings hope.  
Daniel 3:17-18

Hope is one leg of a three-legged stool, together with faith and charity. These three stabilize our lives regardless of the rough or uneven surfaces we might encounter at the time” 
The Infinite Power of Hope

Moroni 10:20-21

“faith is rooted in Jesus Christ. Hope centers in the Atonement. Charity is manifest in the ‘pure love of Christ.’ These three attributes are intertwined like strands in a cable and may not always be precisely distinguished. Together they become our tether to the celestial kingdom”
Russell M. Nelson
“A More Excellent Hope,” 
Ensign, Feb. 1997

In president Holland's talk, "Motions of a Hidden Fire", he recognizes that God heard and answered the prayers for his and his wife's lives, although the answers were vastly different. - April 2024

For every Nephi and Lehi divinely protected by an encircling flame of fire for their faith, we have an Abinadi burned at a stake of flaming fire for his.
