Let us completely cast ourselves upon Him, for He is able, altogether able, to do and to accomplish His
will in and through our lives. And the Lord said, to all who will remain faithful to Him and His word,
“And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give to every man according as his work shall
be” Rev. 22:12.
