Hope is interesting because it depends on a person's circumstances. Around the world, there are literally millions of persecuted Christians. They often to the end of the Bible for hope: Revelation 22:20 “20 He who testifies to these things says, “Surely I am coming quickly.” Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus!” They have a great hope, an intense longing for the return of Jesus. They say and sing the Aramaic word “maranatha,” which appears in 1 Corinthians 16:22 and means “O Lord, come!” They have that hope because they have nothing to lose.
What about us? We are all living comfortably, middle-class, mostly retired. The difference between them and us is that we have lots to lose. I remember the handwringing during the Great Recession, when the 401 (k) became a 201 (k). Never forget that, as middle-class Americans, we are among the richest, most prosperous people in the world. About 18% of people worldwide own a car. https://www.motorbiscuit.com/number-car-owners-world-less-think/
