A Good Verse!

Boy, I needed this verse today. A lovely lady in my Bible study - which is for young mommies -sent it to our group for encouragement, and I'm posting in case it will be a blessing to anyone else out there. Her translation was slightly different than mine (NKJV) so I am posting them both.

"May JESUS HIMSELF and GOD the FATHER, who reached out in LOVE and surprised you with gifts of unending help and confidence, put a fresh heart in you, invigorate your work, enliven your speech." (2 Thessalonians 2:16-17

"Now may our Lord Jesus Christ Himself, and our God and Father, who has loved us and given us everlasting consolation and good hope by grace, comfort your hearts and establish you in every good word and work." (2 Thessalonians 2:16-17) (NKJV)
