Gloryian

Day 28 of 30 · 30 Days of Hope

To whom God was pleased to give knowledge of the wealth of the glory of this secret among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:

Whom we are preaching; guiding and teaching every man in all wisdom, so that every man may be complete in Christ;

And for this purpose I am working, using all my strength by the help of his power which is working in me strongly.

CONTEXT

Original word: πλοῦτος (ploûtos) · wealth (as fulness), i.e. (literally) money, possessions, or (figuratively) abundance, richness, (specially), valuable bestowment

REFLECTION

Hope is often a practice before it is a feeling. Colossians 1:27 invites you to wait, trust and remember.

PRAYER

Lord, I bring you what feels heavy today. Teach me to hope in you, not in my circumstances. Amen.

QUESTION

Where do you need hope today?

ONE ACTION TODAY

Pray for someone you know who is going through a hard season.

Reflections are drafts awaiting pastoral review.
