Exult.

Romans 5:1-5, Therefore having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have obtained our introduction by faith into this grace in which we stand; and we exult in hope of the glory of God. And not only this, but we also exult in our tribulations, knowing that tribulation brings about perseverance; and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope; and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.

The idea of exulting in the hope of the glory of God is wonderful. Putting all of our hope in Him is totally secure. Then we come to the idea of exulting in tribulation, not such an appealing idea. Yet when all of our hope is in Him, we know that everything comes back to His hope, which will never disappoint us. No matter what happens, we are safe and secure when our hope is in Him.

Pour out Your love within our hearts through Your Holy Spirit, Lord!
