The Lord, the Lord, the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness, maintaining love to thousands, and forgiving wickedness, rebellion, and sin. Exodus34:six

Cause me to hear Your lovingkindness in the morning, for I trust in You; Cause me to know the way I should go, because I long for You. Psalm143:eight

“God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” God will lift you up in due time, if you humble yourselves under His mighty hand by casting all your cares on Him because He cares for you. And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself restore you and make you strong, firm, and steadfast. FirstPeterFive:five-through-seven,ten.

Therefore, so that I would not become arrogant, I was given a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan to trouble me – so that I would not become arrogant. Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. But He said to me, “My grace is enough for you, for My power comes to full strength in weakness.” So then, I will boast most gladly about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, troubles, persecutions, and difficulties. For whenever I am weak, then I am strong. 2Corinthians12:seven-ten.

Now then, stand still and see this great thing the Lord is about to do before your eyes! 1Samuel12:sixteen

We have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. We always carry around in the body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. SecondCorinthiansFour:seven-ten,sixteen-eighteen.

I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with My loving eye on you. Psalm32:eight

All my longings lie open before You, Lord; my sighing is not hidden from You. Lord, I wait for You; You will answer, Lord my God. Psalm38:nine,fifteen

She will bear a Son, and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins. Matthew1:twenty-one

Bear fruit in keeping with repentance. Matthew3:eight

You have heard that it was said, “You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.” But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you. Matthew5:fourth-three-fourth-four

But lay up for yourselves treasures in Heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. Matthew6:twenty-twenty-one

Everyone then who hears these words of Mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. Matthew7:twenty-four

I sought the LORD, and He answered me; He delivered me from all my fears. Psalm34:four

And whoever does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me. Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. Matthew10:thirty-eight-thirty-nine

Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have hope: because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness. I say to myself, “The Lord is my portion; therefore I will wait for Him.” The Lord is good to those whose hope is in Him, to the one who seeks Him; it is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord. Lamentations3:twenty-one-twenty-six
