Psalms 18: 30 - 32

​​

​​​

I John 3:1     See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him.

​

2     Beloved, we are God's children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we know that when he appears we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he is.

​

3     And everyone who thus hopes in him purifies himself as he is pure.

​

Ps. 63:1     O God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you;

​

3     Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you.

​

4     So I will bless you as long as I live; in your name I will lift up my hands.

​

18:30     This God—his way is perfect; the word of the Lord proves true; he is a shield for all those who take refuge in him.

​

31     For who is God, but the Lord? And who is a rock, except our God?—

​

32     the God who equipped me with strength and made my way blameless.
