Passion for Praise: 'So That God Will Be Given Glory!'

Monday, November 23, 2009

May God, who gives this patience and encouragement, help you live in complete harmony with each other, as is fitting for followers of Christ Jesus. Then all of you can join together with one voice, giving praise and glory to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, accept each other just as Christ has accepted you so that God will be given glory.
— Romans 15:5-7 NLT
