Paul continues to tell the believers what kind of people they should be. This list began in Romans 12:9.

AT: "Do not be lazy in your duty, but be eager to follow the Spirit and to serve the Lord"
In your confidence, rejoice
AT: "Be happy because your confidence is in God"
in your troubles, be patient
This can be translated as a new sentence: "Be patient when difficult times come"
in prayer, be constant
This can be translated as a new sentence: "And remember to constantly pray"

This is the last item in the list that began in Romans 12:9. "Concerning the needs of the saints, share with them" or "As for…" or "When fellow Christians are in trouble, help them with what they need."
give yourselves to hospitality
AT: "always welcome them into your home when they need somewhere to stay"
