Scripture for Reflection and Preparation
2 Corinthians 13:9 “9 in fact, we rejoice when we are weak and you are strong. We also pray for this: your maturity.”
Ephesians 3:17b-19 “17b i pray that you, being rooted and firmly established in love, 18 may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and width, height and depth, 19 and to know the Messiah’s love that surpasses knowledge, so you may be filled with all the fullness of god.”
Ezekiel 37:4-6 “4 He said to me, ‘prophesy concerning these bones and say to them: Dry bones, hear the word of the lord! 5 This is what the lord god says to these bones: i will cause breath to enter you, and you will live. 6 i will put tendons on you, make
flesh grow on you, and cover you with skin. i will put breath in you so that you come to life. Then you will know that i am the lord.’”
