Grace for your spirit September 16, 2014

Grace for your spirit
Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you will abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.  Romans 15:13

The apostle Paul is bringing his letter to a conclusion with this wish for us all.  That God would fill us with joy, peace, and hope.  Everyone wants those things, but they are not like pulling a rabbit out of a hat. His letter told us how to have a right standing before God, and how to live a renewed transformed life.  When we are in Christ and walking after the Spirit, as believers, God will fill us with joy, peace, and hope.  The power of the Holy Spirit is the only sure supplier of the things we desire. Let's not leave these things to chance.  Hope in God.
