1 John 3:9 No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God’s seed remains in them; they cannot go on sinning, because they have been born of God.

Great peace have they who love your law, and nothing can make them stumble.

You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance.

We wait in hope for the Lord; he is our help and our shield.

I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my loving eye on you.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;

in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.

You are my Lord; apart from you I have no good thing.

For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding.

But you, dear friends, by building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in God’s love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life.
