"..and I will be a father to you, and you shall be sons and daughters to me, says the Lord Almighty"(2 Cor 6:18)
"Though you have not seen him, you love him.
And even though you do not see him now, you believe in him
and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy." (1 Peter 1:8)
For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart
Hebrews 4:12 *
