This piece is based on the verse Romans 15:13 for me. As the word of God is alive, and active, I believe God delights when we ‘own’ a certain verse or passage that takes on a whole new powerful punch than maybe the other hundred times we had seen it. Something about a specific moment in time when we need ‘that particular’ truth more than anything else that could help us. This verse became a lifeline to me at a particularly hard time, the year we adopted our daughter. God used this hope filled verse to change my thinking about certain circumstances and wreck the enemies plans to steal my hope and joy. He reminds me almost daily that my hope and joy is often found in the choice of where I fix my thoughts. May you be blessed in a fresh way as you ponder this ‘royal’ purple Hope found in Romans 15, offered by the King of Kings.
