Romans 15:18a “I will not venture to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me…” Our author is dedicated with purpose. His focus is serving his Savior. He knows life is short and is to be filled with telling others of the ultra importance of telling others the vital Gospel message. He knew that without knowing, believing and living the truth of God’s grace an extremely sad future would be the outcome. With God as the Director of one’s life all is well and our author, as well as our Savior, wants us all to know—all is well!

Romans 15:13 “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” Hope is defined as an absolute confident expectation of what God has promised. God has made promises to you and me. Those promises give us a joy and peace which override the human traits of doubt, anxiety or depression. The Holy Spirit, which thrives within each of us is beyond amazing and overrides our human nature. He gives us a strength and joy found nowhere else. We thank you, God, for this fantastic gift! May we always keep it at the forefront of our thinking.

Romans 15:5 “May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you the same attitude of mind toward each other that Christ Jesus had,” We all know the acronym WWJD. We have bracelets, tattoo’s, necklaces and sometimes clothing which display these letters—or should we say the thought these letters project. Isn’t WWJD a constant thought every Christian has as his/her walk on this earth continues? Each one of us wants our Savior’s thinking to constantly dominate our thinking.

Romans 15:17 “For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of rightrousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.” A Christian’s heart is focused on serving His Savior and bringing His Spirit into our very shallow minded world. What you eat today is immaterial. How you live and who you represent in your daily walk in of utmost importance. As the child of our God we represent Him every second of the day. That is quite a responsibility–we need His help. We pray for our Holy Spirit to guide us. Have a great weekend.
