For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

I can do all this through him who gives me strength

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.

For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.

Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.

Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.
