May the eyes of your hearts be enlightened, that you may know what is the hope that belongs to his call, what are the riches of glory in his inheritance among the holy ones, and what is the surpassing greatness of his power, for us who believe.

Ephesians 1:18-19

Paul continues in his prayer for the Ephesians. He prays that they will know God intimately and then he explains what he wants them to know. He prays that they will know from the core of their being the hope they have in God. God’s hope is different from human hope. Human hope is wishful thinking, but God’s hope means confidence and conviction in a preferred future. 

Express your confidence in God today. Tell God that you believe he loves you so much that he is working to bring about a better future for you.
