Encouragement . . . for the Journey

"The Son is the radiance of God's glory
and the exact representation of His being,
sustaining all things by His powerful Word.
After He had provided purification for sins,

He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven."
Hebrews 1:3-4

Praise Jesus today for He is:
R -- Radiance of God's glory
E -- Exact representation of God
S -- Sustainer of all things by His powerful Word
T -- The purifier of our sins

Because of what Jesus did, we can fully REST in Him and His promises and KNOW that through Him we too can reflect God's glory and represent Him well to our family, friends, co-workers, neighbors or whoever we come in contact with in our: attitudes, desires, thoughts and actions.

"Great and marvelous are Your deeds,
Lord God Almighty,
Just and true are Your ways,
King of the ages.
Who will not fear You, O Lord, and bring glory to Your name?
All nations will come and worship before You, for
Your righteous acts have been revealed."
Revelation 15:3-4
