Be Joyful In Hope

Be Joyful In Hope

Are you a “to do” list kind of person or not?  I like them because they keep me on task at work.  At first glance I thought this scripture was a “to do” list.  But, honestly, I think it is more of a “to be” list.

“Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.”  Romans 12:12

Those aren’t qualities that you can check off of a “to do” list. Honestly, it would be a daunting task! Joyful. Patient. Faithful.  Those are byproducts of God and His spirit working in our lives.  And that’s the evidence of God working in us that the world sees.  May God “be” working in and through you today.  – Sandi
