Reflection

For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, to give you a future and a hope.

Be strong and courageous; do not be afraid or terrified of them, for it is the LORD your God who goes with you; He will never leave you nor forsake you.”

Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”

Now we see but a dim reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

As water reflects the face, so the heart reflects the true man.

By this everyone will know that you are My disciples, if you love one another.”

For anyone who hears the word but does not carry it out is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror,

For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that everyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.

And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into His image with intensifying glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.

Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, for God has said: “Never will I leave you, never will I forsake you.”
