May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that
You may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Romans 15:13 (NIV)
* * * * *
Thoughts for Further Reflection:
To capture this sense of abundance
picture the waves of the ocean swelling and breaking over the rocks and cliffs.
Then picture a cup that boiling up from some unseen source inside that
keeps it cascading over around it whole rim.
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing,
so that you may abound in hope by the power
of the Holy Spirit.

Peace that does not bring hope, peace that only brings silence,
is false peace that is not believing (the KJV word).
Peace which is not accompanied by joy
is not peace empowered (brought about )
by the Holy Spirit.
