.... honor and glory...

.... Praise the Lord, oh my soul, Praise His holy name...
He , who has given us NEW LIFE in Jesus Christ, His son,
He who keeps His promises and loves us with an EVERLASTING love..

drawing near to HIM, my day starts by being filled with new purpose and love,
a renewed conviction, to honor Him and praise Him in all that I do..

because: even though I have not seen Him , I love Him, and even though I do not see Him now, I believe in Him and am filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, for I am receiving the goal of my faith, the salvation of my soul.....

and furthermore...even though now, for a LITTLE while I have to suffer grief in all kinds of trials, I know that these have come so that my faith may be proved genuine and result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed...

I love Him with all my soul, heart and mind, and I will strive to honor Him and glorify Him in all that I do...today and every day... by His grace and in His power, a willing vessel of His grace and love..

AMEN
