The Power and the Glory

For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever.

     The prayer that Jesus taught His disciples begins with praising God and ends with praising God. Reminding ourselves of eternity and of God’s power and glory keeps things in perspective doesn’t it? When everything appears to be out of control, remember your eternal home. Even ninety or one hundred years here is just a whisp of wind compared with forever.

     And our forever will be so much more than anything we can hope for or imagine. Here are two more verses to add to our praise today.

However, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived” – the things God has prepared for those who love him.  1 Corinthians 2:9

Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us, to Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generation, forever and ever. Amen  Ephesians 3:20-21

     To Him be glory. Our lives should bring glory to the One who called us.  Sing praises to Him today. For to Him is all the power and the glory. And no human mind or heart can imagine the forever prepared for us.

Amen
