In the beginning God created the heavens And the earth.

‘Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and mighty things you do not know.’

Be on your guard. Stand firm in the faith. Be brave. Be strong.

Put up with each other. Forgive the things you are holding against one another. Forgive, just as the Lord forgave you.

Do not worry about anything. Instead, tell God about everything. Ask and pray. Give thanks to Him.

The way we show our love is to obey God's commands. He commands you to lead a life of love.

You are God's chosen people. You are holy and dearly loved. So put on tender mercy and kindness as if they were your clothes. Don't be proud. Be gentle and patient.

So my heart is glad. Joy is on my tongue. My body also is full of hope.

I have peace today, not because there are no storms in the world, but because the Lord is our peace in the midst of the storm.

God said, "Let the land produce all kinds of living creatures".

So whatever you wish that others would do to you, do also to them, for this is the law and the prophets.

But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.
