Confident Expectation

"The idea of confidence is implicit in the word expectation. The Greek word for this concept, the word used in the Septuagint and the New Testament, is elpizo, which means "confident expectation," now sometimes translated as the less forceful word hope."

~ The Creative Call

Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or

i m a g i n e,

according to his power that is at work within us,

to Him be glory in the church

and in Christ Jesus

throughout all generations,

for ever and ever!

Amen.

~ Ephesians 3:20 (NIV)
