    Peter calls on the Christians in his day to have hope much like Martin Luther King Jr. did in his day. Peter says, “I command you to be hopeful though you are suffering greatly.”

    Sometimes our hope is invisible. The last words of dying people have always fascinated me. They are so revealing of a person's heart and soul.
