13Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy
and peace as you believe in Him so that you may overflow with hope by the power
of the Holy Spirit. (Romans 15:13 HCSB)
Jesus softly announce His
presence to us. The shimmering radiance of
His glory embraces us. Jesus has all power in Heaven and earth, yet He is infinitely
tender with us. The weaker we are the
more gently He approaches us. We are to
let our weakness be an entrance to His presence. Whenever we feel inadequate, remember, “God is our refuge and strength, a helper who is
always found in times of trouble.” (Psalms 46:1 HCSB)
The hope we have in
Christ is our protection we have from depression, and self-pity. The golden cord connecting us to Heaven is the
hope we have in Jesus Christ. the more
we cling to hope, the more Christ bears the weight of our burden. 12 Rejoice
in hope; be patient in affliction; be persistent in prayer. (Romans 12:12 HCSB). Cling to hope and then glorious light of
Christ Jesus will reach through the darkness and embrace us in His love.
