The apostle Paul wrote these words after concluding his presentation of salvation by grace through faith and God's plan of redemption for all people, found in his letter to the Romans. These words move me every time I read them. They remind me that some things in Scripture don't need commentary, explanations, or elaboration; they just need to be spoken and believed. Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God! ... For from him and through him and to him are all things. To him be the glory forever! Amen. I encourage you to memorize this short passage of praise and keep it close to your heart, and let it come from your lips during all your times of difficulty as well as times of bounty and blessing and worship.

Oh, the depth of the riches of your wisdom and knowledge, O God! All things have come from you and through your grace. For your glory, O God, all things proclaim your creative genius and reflect your majesty. To you be the glory forever! Amen.
