By entering through faith into what God has always wanted to do for us - set us right with him, make us fit for him - we have it all together with God because of our Master Jesus. And that's not all: We throw open our doors to God and discover at the same moment that he has already thrown open his door to us. We find ourselves standing where we always hoped we might stand - out in the wide open spaces of God's grace and glory, standing tall and shouting our praise.
Paul the ApostleHe is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.
Paul the ApostleThere is nothing love cannot face; there is limit to its faith, its hope and endurance.
Paul the ApostleRemember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously.
Paul the ApostleSo, then, let us pursue the things making for peace and the things that are upbuilding to one another.
Paul the Apostle
