Living a life full of hope is divine. Flipping the bible, apostolic message of Peter suggests setting our hope on the grace that brought you through the faith in Jesus Christ is worthwhile. And since the grace of God is thought to be the centerpiece of our salvation, it is appropriate to desire and ask the Lord for the strength to sustain our spirituality till the end. Bible further says, the grace of the Lord also teaches the bearer to be obedient to the word of God, and not to conform to the evil desires, you had when you were in ignorance. It is written; “Just as he who called you holy, so be holy in all you do.”

As a matter of fact, living thoroughly in the faith and hope is not that easy that you may struggle in its course while waiting for the blessed hope. But the joy of our salvation is eternal, as trials of all kinds for a little while have to come to pass, so that the proven genuineness of our faith shall be established in heaven as foretold. The word of God says in 1 Peter 1:3-9, NIV-Bible; “Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade. This inheritance is kept in heaven for you, who through faith are shielded by God’s power until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time. In all this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials. These have come so that the proven genuineness of your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed. Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, for you are receiving the end result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.”

Therefore, rejoice in every given moment, regardless of its kind – while true saints are made worthy day after day as they were refined by fire, for greater worth than gold, for praising and honoring our King Jesus Christ. Amen
