More Than We Can Imagine

Ephesians 3:14-21 (NKJV)
14 For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
15 from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,
16 that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man,
17 that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love,
18 may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height—
19 to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
20 Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us,
21 to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.

Más De Lo Que Podemos Imaginar

Efesios 3:14-21 (NVI)
14 Por esta razón me arrodillo delante del Padre,
15 de quien recibe nombre toda familia en el cielo y en la tierra.
16 Le pido que, por medio del Espíritu y con el poder que procede de sus gloriosas riquezas, os fortalezca en lo íntimo de vuestro ser,
17 para que por fe Cristo habite en vuestros corazones. Y pido que, arraigados y cimentados en amor,
18 podáis comprender, junto con todos los santos, cuán ancho y largo, alto y profundo es el amor de Cristo;
19 en fin, que conozcáis ese amor que sobrepasa nuestro conocimiento, para que seáis llenos de la plenitud de Dios.
20 Al que puede hacer muchísimo más que todo lo que podamos imaginarnos o pedir, por el poder que obra eficazmente en nosotros,
21 ¡a él sea la gloria en la iglesia y en Cristo Jesús por todas las generaciones, por los siglos de los siglos! Amén.

When Christ Returns

Philippians 1:3-8 (NKJV)
3 I thank my God upon every remembrance of you,
4 always in every prayer of mine making request for you all with joy,
5 for your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now,
6 being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ;
7 just as it is right for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart, inasmuch as both in my chains and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel, you all are partakers with me of grace.
8 For God is my witness, how greatly I long for you all with the affection of Jesus Christ.

Cuando Jesucristo Regrese

Filipenses 1:3-8 (NVI)
3 Doy gracias a mi Dios cada vez que me acuerdo de vosotros.
4 En todas mis oraciones por todos vosotros, siempre oro con alegría,
5 porque habéis participado en el evangelio desde el primer día hasta ahora.
6 Estoy convencido de esto: el que comenzó tan buena obra en vosotros la irá perfeccionando hasta el día de Cristo Jesús.
7 Es justo que yo piense así de todos vosotros porque os llevo en el corazón; pues, ya sea que me encuentre preso o defendiendo y confirmando el evangelio, todos vosotros participáis conmigo de la gracia que Dios me ha dado.
8 Dios es testigo de cuánto os quiero a todos con el entrañable amor de Cristo Jesús.

It’s No Use Worrying

Matthew 6:25-30 (NKJV)
25 Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?
26 Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?
27 Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?
28 So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin;
29 and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
30 Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
