καυχάομαι
To boast, to glory, to exult. Kauchaomai. Let him who boasts boast in the Lord. The only legitimate boasting is about what God has done. Human achievement is a poor foundation.

Someone, anyone, something. Tis. Scripture often hinges on this small word: if anyone thirsts, let him come. The invitation is unrestricted. No one is excluded from the call.
