Rom 15:13 May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope. ESV Bible
One thing this world is sorely missing today is hope. We see a young generation that have a sense of hopelessness because they have never been introduced to the God of hope. Many see Christianity as only a philosophy or a set of rules. They do not see that Christianity is about a personal relationship with the God of hope.
We should show forth our eternal hope to this ever-darkening world. We should be so filled with hope, joy and peace that we are like the cup running over and splashing into the saucer. Those around us need to be able to see that we are filled with these things. Everywhere we go and everyone we see need to sense that there is something wonderful about us.
We are to be the brilliant light of hope that is shining continually into this world. God fills us to overflowing. Because we believe that our God is exactly who He says He is and He can do all that He says He can do. This should generate in us an unending fountain that abounds to give out this hope, peace and joy to all that come in contact with us.
Lord, help me to be an artesian well of hope, joy and peace that can flow out into this dark and hopeless world. May my life show forth Jesus and His great love, mercy and grace and lead others to find this unending hope for themselves. Amen
