In Psalm 131, we see the crucial nature of hope in the life of a Christian. We examined what hope is and what hinders us from hope this side of eternity. Pride and a lack of humility are quick to choke out any peace and joy in our lives because we're on the throne of our hearts instead of the only One who can truly grant hope to us. When we have our hope rooted in God's promises and rest in His attributes, confidence and expectation in gospel hope are the natural byproducts as we find contentment, joy, and peace in Christ in us--the Hope of Glory.
