Hope and Psalms 16:9

"Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoices; my flesh also will rest in hope." - Psalms 16:9. 
In Hebrew, the word for "hope" here is often linked to the concept of refuge, derived from a root that means 'to flee for protection.' This paints a beautiful picture of our hope not just as an expectation or wish, but as a secure shelter where we find safety. Our joy and peace come from resting in God, our ultimate refuge - our hope. Let this truth transform our daily lives, encouraging us to find solace and strength in the divine shelter of our Lord.
