Pope Francis writes that hope is a gift from God and a task that must be cultivated by all Christians, in the introduction to his new book,"Hope Is A Light In The Night," which collects excerpts from various speeches by the Pope on the theological virtue of hope.
Hope, on the other hand, is a gift and a task for every Christian. It is a gift because it is God who offers it to us. Hoping, in fact, is not a mere act of optimism, like when we sometimes hope to pass an exam at university or when we hope for good weather for the trip out of town on a Sunday in the spring . No, hoping is waiting for something that has already been given to us: salvation in God's eternal and infinite love.
