Friday's Living Water

Scripture

We give thanks to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you,
since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and the love which you have for all the saints;
because of the hope laid up for you in heaven, of which you previously heard in the word of truth, the gospel
which has come to you, just as in all the world also it is constantly bearing fruit and increasing, even as it has been doing in you also since the day you heard of it and understood the grace of God in truth;
Colossians 1:3-6




Damos gracias a Dios, el Padre de nuestro Señor Jesucristo, orando siempre por vosotros,
al oír de vuestra fe en Cristo Jesús y del amor que tenéis por todos los santos,
a causa de la esperanza reservada para vosotros en los cielos, de la cual oísteis antes en la palabra de verdad, el evangelio,
que ha llegado hasta vosotros; así como en todo el mundo está dando fruto constantemente y creciendo, así lo ha estado haciendo también en vosotros, desde el día que oísteis y comprendisteis la gracia de Dios en verdad;
Colosenses 1:3-6
