 3 Great is the LORD and most worthy of praise; his greatness no one can fathom. 

 4 One generation will commend your works to another;  they will tell of your mighty acts. 

 5 They will speak of the glorious splendor of your majesty, and I will meditate on your wonderful works. 

 6 They will tell of the power of your awesome works, and I will proclaim your great deeds. 

 7 They will celebrate your abundant goodness and joyfully sing of your righteousness. 

8 The Lord is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and rich in love.  

9  The Lord is good to all; he has compassion on all he has made. 

Psalm 145:3-13Psalm 145:3-13

10 All you have made will praise you, O LORD; your saints will extol you. 

 11 They will tell of the glory of your kingdom and speak of your might, 

 12 so that all men may know of your mighty acts and the glorious splendor of your kingdom. 

 13 Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and your dominion endures through all generations. The LORD is faithful to all his promises and loving toward all he has made.

Psalm 145:3-13Psalm 145:3-13

John 5:17

   Jesus said to them, “My Father is always at work to this very day, and I, too, am working.”

1 Timothy 4:12

  “Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity.”

Lamentations 3:22-28 22 Because of the LORD’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. 23 They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. 24 I say to myself, “The LORD is my portion; therefore I will wait for him.” 25 The LORD is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him; 26 it is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the LORD. 27 It is good for a man to bear the yoke while he is young. 28 Let him sit alone in silence, for the LORD has laid it on him. 

Jeremiah 1:4-84 The word of the LORD came to me, saying, 5“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you,  before you were born I set you apart;  I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.” 6 “Alas, Sovereign LORD,” I said, “I do not know how to speak; I am too young.”   7 But the LORD said to me,  “Do not say, ‘I am too young.’ You must go to everyone I send you to and say whatever I command you. 8 Do not be afraid of them, for I am with you and will rescue you,” declares the LORD.

What is a movement?“God working through a team of like-hearted disciples to win, build and send toward the fulfillment of the Great Commission”

Dr. Charles Malik, President of the U.N. General Assembly

“There is never anything more important in the world than the work of the Church of Jesus Christ, and the most important work of any kind in the world today – greater than all of the problems facing men and nations – is the recapture of the great universities of the world for Jesus Christ.”
