I will, Terry. You deserve a place on any list with those two great gals.

Hope is one of those things that makes me cry.

Hi Easton- I’m truly honored to be on the same list as Liz and Wendy. Hope is the real “Secret”, and I’m glad you’ve chosen to write about it as you have. I’m sure this will prove inspiring for more than a few fellow bloggers!
Thanks, and keep the faith!

Yup. Thanks, Robert.

And I know these are abstract things. But they have concrete applications in professional blogging. I believe the best way to become a successful blogger is become a complete blogger – and that means constantly working on your character as well as your skills.

One of the things I love about the apostle Paul’s definition of hope is that it’s no namby-pamby wishful thinking dream. It’s real, it’s substantive, and it’s something you can count on.

You said it right, Easton; FAITH (which we need for action) is built on HOPE (which we need for faith).
