Hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts.
– Romans 5:5
Have you ever watched water gush out of a fire hose? What makes it different from water that flows out of an ordinary garden hose? The fire hose has an incredible amount of pressure that allows much more water to come from it, compared to the garden hose. Do you see God’s love more like a fire hose or a garden hose?
Life is full of trials and tribulations, whether the struggle is with a disease, finances, relationships, or something else. But any of these things can help to build hope in God. As Paul points out in Romans chapter 5, this hope is one that cannot be let down. God has already proven His intention to complete the work He has started through the love He has poured out into the hearts of His children. This love is not being poured into your heart through the trickle of a mere garden hose. God wants you to experience the full, immense outpouring of His love through the Holy Spirit, like a spiritual fire hose.
Are you ready to experience a love like that today? Reach out to God and ask Him to renew your hope, that you can experience His unfailing, unconditional love wash over you.
