In English, hope sounds optimistic. Positive thinking about the future. But Hebrews 6:19 uses the word elpis. Elpis is not confidence. It is expectation held in uncertainty. Hope, in Scripture, does not deny risk. It exists because risk is real. This matters when the future feels unclear. When outcomes are no longer exciting, just unknown. When hope feels quieter than it used to. Elpis tells us that hope doesn’t require enthusiasm. It only requires direction. #BibleStudy #GreekWord #HopeInUncertainty #ChristianHope #FaithJourney
