Overflowing with hope

“I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit.”Romans‬ ‭15‬:‭13‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Having an overflow is abundance. An abundance of Hope fills us with joy. This is all possible through the Holy Spirit. As we work in tandem with Him joy is released, pressed down, shaken together and running over. As it runs over others will benefit and be blessed. 

Today has been a day of blessing. I went to church ready to worship and the experience was dynamic. The preaching of the word was full of goodness. Then I had three of my grandchildren and one of their friends over to my house sit for lunch and a swim. Although it has been a hot day the pool was refreshing. Having four young people to share it with was a blessing. And then there was more, another grandson came and they all stayed for dinner,  and they are still here waiting for their parents to collect them. My world is full. I am now sitting outside listening to the native birds call as I write this. The heat has left the day and a slight breeze wafts through every so often. I am at peace and very grateful. My cup is running over. How good is our God? Amen!
