Rejoice in Hope

Rejoice in Hope

“Rejoice in hope, endure in affliction, persevere in prayer.”  (Romans 12: 12)

Have peace!  Be calm!  Enjoy the peace that Christ offers you every morning in the Eucharist.  That is his gift and he wants you to have it.  God is surely for you and with you in this Enterprise.  Be thoroughly convinced of this fact.  

Wait patiently for God’s time.  God has time for everything. (Ecclesiastes 3:1)   Let your hope make you joyful, calm and patient.  Know that this hope is built on the word of God and not on changeable man.  No word of God is impossible for him and his word is enduring.  Trust in God’s disposal of events.  Things may change.  People may change.  Laws may change.  The weather may change.  But God is faithful.  He remains the same forever.  

In this journey, just as he was with Abraham, Moses and Joshua, he is surely with you.   Never doubt that.  God will not abandon you nor forsake you. (Deuteronomy 31:6)  This is the promise of one who is true and faithful.  God is guiding you every step in this project.  You know his presence through the faith you have in the Enterprise, the peace and calm you feel.  God’s guidance is peace.
