The future
of the
Church is
in our
hands.
What will
each one of
us be doing,
to make
Christ known
in 2019 and
beyond?
18
For this reason we bow our knees before
you our Heavenly Father, from whom
every family in heaven and on earth is
named, that according to the riches of
your Glory, you may grant us to be
strengthened with power through your
Holy Spirit in our inner being, so that
Christ may dwell in our hearts through
faith –
19
– that we being rooted and grounded
in love, may have the strength to
comprehend with all the saints what is
the breadth and length and height and
depth, and to know the love of Christ
that surpasses knowledge, that
everyone of us may be filled with all the
fulness of God.
20
Now to Him who is able to do far
more abundantly than all that we
ask or think, according to the
power at work within us, to Him be
glory in the Church and in Christ
Jesus throughout all generations,
forever and ever. Amen.
Eph 3:14 to 21
