Psalm 100
A psalm. For giving grateful praise.
1
Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth.
2
Worship the Lord with gladness;
come before him with joyful songs.
3
Know that the Lord is God.
It is he who made us, and and not we ourselves;
we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.
4
Enter his gates with thanksgiving
and his courts with praise;
give thanks to him and praise his name.
5
For the Lord is good and his love endures forever;
his faithfulness continues through all generations.
In the beginning, when God's Word made manifest - going from God and with God. The Word became God - Jesus Christ.
All things were made through Him.
Nothing was made that has been made - without God.
God is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the Word of His Power.
In Jesus was life,
that Life was the Light - of all of mankind.
The Light of Christ shines in the darkness and the darkness can never extinguish Jesus as Lord.
The Light of Christ shines in the darkness and the darkness can never extinguish Jesus as Lord.
John the Baptist was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light.
The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world. 10 He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him.
He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him.
Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God— children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God.

The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.
Out of his fullness we have all received grace in place of grace already given.
For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
18 No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is himself God and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known.
Abba. Father God,
Jesus the very one who ascended higher than all the heavens, in order to fill the whole universe.
Jesus the very one who ascended higher than all the heavens, in order to fill the whole universe.
We rely on Christ himself to give, to equip Your people for works of service, that the body of Christ may be built up. Help us all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.
Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming.
Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ.
From Jesus the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.
Father God is able to bless ua all abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that we need, we will abound in every good work.
We ask for Your abundance to bless the ones we love, to fill us as willing People of Jesus Christ. In Your Willingness heal cancer. Heal broken bones. Heal all in need of Jesus. And for our Church family, neighbors, co-workers, State and Nation. Help us to tell others of the Love God has for them- His chosen Child.
For those recovering from the Flooding from the Mexican Gulf's Tropical Storm.
His Light Shines even in Tropical Storms.
In Jesus. Amen.
