Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace so that by faith you may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Spirit. (Romans 15:13 Lamsa)
God is our only hope. Nothing is impossible with God. He has the power to do anything He desires. Let us entrust our lives to Him. Trusting Him is having faith that He will save us. Being children of God does not mean that we will not experience difficulties in life. In fact, God encourages us and gives us hope that in this world, we have many troubles but we will overcome. Stresses are in every areas of life. Christ experienced the most but He prevailed. He was insulted, arrested without sin, persecuted, and then sentenced to death on the cross with a crown of thorns on His head. Even then, His heart was full of joy and peace. He shows us the way to peace and joy under difficult circumstances – Faith in God. We have to trust God fully. Obey what God wants in our life. Surrender ourselves to Him. Trust that His plans are for our own good. We will see how great we will be, because the power of God is working in us. Every good thing comes from God. Thank Him for all the blessings that come your way. Faith works.
