"Hope is patience with the lamp lit." ~ Tertullian
Insight
Hope is not loud or overwhelming. It is a steady, burning light that stays with you, even in moments of uncertainty. Keeping that light burning requires patience and trust that something good may yet come, even if the path is unclear.
Patience does not mean passivity. It means holding firm to your belief that things can improve while staying ready to take action when the time comes. Hope asks you to keep the lamp lit, illuminating your way forward while you patiently persist. This balance of faith and effort helps you navigate even the darkest hours.
Reflection
