I have wondered what the difference is between Faith and Hope. First I pondered over it and then I prayed over it. The following is what came into my mind after praying.
There is one story from the life of Jesus Christ that comes to mind regarding the difference between Faith and Hope:
The night before he was crucified, Jesus went to the Garden of Gethsemane with his disciples and prayed alone to God in which he said: "Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me; yet not my will, but yours be done." (Luke 22:42 NIV).
This prayer of Jesus consists of both Hope and Faith as shown below:
1. Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me (HOPE)
2. Yet not my will, but yours be done (FAITH)
So Hope is wanting something. Faith is accepting that God will do what's best for us.
