Have you noticed that hope takes energy? Have you ever hoped that something would happen and found the experience emotionally draining? Even the Apostle Paul's words, Christ in you, your hope of glory, but leaves one hoping that something happens. Doesn't this then also leave the distinct possibility that sometimes what is hoped for won't happen? So, in this regard, and with Paul's permission, I would substitute the word "assurance" for "hope" for this better tells the process of Christ in you. Within the Kingdom, you and your journey as a co-creator is forever safe and secure; it isn't something that is hoped for but assured, for you are now and always will be as God created you. "Assurance" means you don't have to strain or even entertain the remote possibility that it isn't True. Doesn't that take a load off your day?
