Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His great mercy has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
1 Peter 1:3
We are born again to a living hope. What living hope do we have? We have Christ who is alive today in heaven interceding for us. We have a promise that we can live forever with Christ in heaven. This hope is more than an idle pipe dream or a far-fetched fantasy. This hope is a surety. It's a living hope. As we follow Christ, we can have His Spirit living inside us giving us the full assurance that we are His and we will live with Him in eternal happiness.
Lord, I thank You for the living hope that I have, the amazing assurance that I am justified by Your blood and righteous in Your sight. I ask You to continue to mold me into the person You want me to be. Help me to be willing to endure the difficulties that come with that molding process. Help me to patiently grow and live my entire life making You look good to those around me!
