Himself

"God himself will restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you," 1 Peter 5:10.

What God? The God of all grace. The God who called you into his eternal glory. The God who called you in Christ. (The only God that is, was, or ever will be.) This God. This God called whom? You. All you. (Us). This God will do it. Himself. Will do what? Mend you. Fix you. Brace you. Found you. When? After you've suffered a little while. Not a long time. And whom's the object of the verbs? You. And who's the subject of all the actions? God. Himself. Will do it. Sky kingdom.

We visit today with a brother or sister to remind each other to hang in there a little while longer: God's at work! And, together, we praise the Lord God Almighty, the Holy One, and the Lamb, saying: Thank you, forever!
