Rejoicing

 

Habakkuk 3

As we wrap up our 5-part series on having a sustained hope in hard times, we look at Habakkuk's resolve to rejoice in the Lord, come what may. Hope isn't something we accidentally fall into; it must be fought for and cultivated. This is especially true of our 5th key to hope, rejoicing. In the bible, joy is not an emotion that comes and goes based on circumstances; it is a moral imperative, a command we must obey in all circumstances. How can we fight for hope-filled joy when life is hard?
