That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.
We're praying for this so that Jesus gets all the glory through your lives, and you get to share in his glory too, it's all because of God's incredible grace and what Jesus has done.
When you live well, Jesus shines through you, and you get to shine with him.
