Love
Verse for the Day12Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.
Romans 12:12
Paul is talking about how we are to act as Christ followers. We are to be joyful in hope. Joy is different than happiness b/c happiness is situational and can leave; joy is an emotion of great delight or happiness caused by something expectionally good or satisfying. I can think of nothing more satisfying than Christ. Paul also tells us to be patient in affliction. We all make mistakes, and God's grace covers us so we need to cover each other the same way. Then he says to be faithful in prayer. Which means to be strict or thorough in our performance, to be true to our word. Consistent in praying with and for each other. Constantly communicating with God allows us to be closer to Him. So friends, let us remember how we are to act as Christ's followers.
