Multitudes on Mondays

"Everything is indeed for you, so that the grace 

bestowed in abundance on more and more people may 

cause the thanksgiving to overflow for the glory of God."  

-2 Corinthians 4:15

When you come to recognize the continual presence of God around you day in and day out and the love He brings, a joy and peace just dwells richly inside of you.  And, as He plans perfectly, the joy and love is radiated through you to others.  All to bring Him glory and bring others closer to Him.  Let us continue to recognize Him and His love for us in even the smallest, simplest ways He chooses to reveal Himself to us....


Thanks be to God for these and all graces received....
