BIBLE SNIPPETS _________________________________________

2 Corinthians 4:15
It is all for your sake, so that as grace extends to more and more people it may increase thanksgiving, to the glory of God.
Psalm 69:30 - 32
I will praise the name of God with a song;
I will magnify him with thanksgiving.
This will please the Lord more than an ox
or a bull with horns and hoofs.
Let the oppressed see it and be glad;
you who seek God, let your hearts revive!
