Rom 5:1-5 Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Through Him we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, & we rejoice in hope of the glory of God. Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, & endurance produces character, & character produces hope, & hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us. — We are to rejoice in hope! Where does our Hope come from? —Psalm 62:5-6 Yes, my soul, finds rest in God; my hope comes from Him. Truly He is my rock & my salvation; He is my fortress, I will not be shaken. Rom 15:13 May the God of hope fill you with all joy & peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. — It is clear that our Hope comes from HIM! So rejoice! Love Mel
