Now may our God and Father Himself, and Jesus our Lord guide our steps to you [by removing the obstacles that stand in our way]. And may the Lord cause you to increase and excel and overflow in love for one another, and for all people, just as we also do for you; so that He may strengthen and establish your hearts without blame in holiness in the sight of our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all His saints (God’s people).
James 5:8
You, too, be patient and strengthen your hearts, because the Lord’s coming is near.

But just as He who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do, / for it is written: “Be holy, because I am holy.”
