Glory and Love

“All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. You are our merciful Father and the source of all comfort. You comfort us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort you have given us. Our hearts are confident in you, O God. May your glory shine over all the earth and you be exalted above the highest heavens!

“I pray to you, Father, the Creator of everything in heaven and on earth, that from your glorious, unlimited resources you will empower us with inner strength through Holy Spirit. Remind us that Christ makes his home in our hearts as we trust in him. Cause our roots to grow down into God’s love and keep us strong. May we have the power to understand how wide, how long, how high, and how deep your love is. May we experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then we will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.

“Now all glory to God, who is able, through your mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen.”

    my heart is confident.” (Psalm 57:5, 7 NLT)

“When I think of all this, I fall to my knees and pray to the Father, the Creator of everything in heaven and on earth.

Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong.And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.
