Signing off…
Here are a few endings of letters in the New Testament…well wishes for the readers….giving glory to God….encouragements…descriptions of the power of God…grace…praise…locked into a few words finishing at the end…
We don’t do this much nowadays as we write…maybe we should…we need to be reminded that it is through Christ so much came to us…not just in the past but, everyday life…he strengthens, gives abundantly, keeps us from stumbling, presents us blameless, gives us peace, bestows grace, speaks to us through his Spirit…..and so much more….
Thank YOU….
Grace be to you….
Now to him who is able to strengthen you
according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ,
according to the revelation of the mystery that was kept secret for long ages but has now been disclosed and through the prophetic writings has been made known to all nations,
according to the command of the eternal God, to bring about the obedience of faith— to the only wise God be glory forevermore through Jesus Christ! Amen.
