These days it fundamentally comes down to faith for me.

It comes down to the hope founded in the Paschal Mystery.

God interceding in our human world for the better. And with Jesus in particular, the fundamental forever lesson that love wins.

Alleluia!

More on The Mystery? This from Wikipedia,

“The first known use of the term Paschal mystery  (literally  Mystery of the Pascha) was found in the homily of Melito of Sardis On the Paschawritten between A.D. 160 and 170:^[9]

Understand, therefore, beloved,

how it is new and old,
eternal and temporary,
perishable and imperishable,
mortal and immortal, this mystery of the Pascha:
old as regards the force
but new as regards the Word;
temporary as regards the model (gr. typos),
eternal because of grace
perishable because of the slaughter of the sheep,
imperishable because of the life of the Lord;
mortal because of the burial in earth,
immortal because of the rising from the dead

—On the Pascha, 2-3
