So I pray that God,
who gives you hope,
will keep you happy and
full of peace as
you believe in him.
May you overflow with hope
through the power
of the Holy Spirit.
Just because one has a happy and peaceful demeanor, it doesn't necessarily mean that there's an absence of problems, challenges or issues in that person's life. The Bible teaches us that even though we're going to experience tribulations, we still have Jesus' assurance found in John 16:33, "I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world." If you believe in God, and you have faithfully understand that you are clay in the Potter's hands, then you probably understand what hope really is. You know that you're safe even in the midst of dangers, trials, problems and inexplicable difficulties because while in these troubling situations, your heart and mind have a mysterious peace and happiness. The kind of peace and happiness that can only be provided by the Holy Spirit.
