The Lord makes firm the step of the one who delights in him; though he may stumble, he will not fall, for the Lord upholds him with his hand.

I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.

The Lord is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth.

That is why we labor and strive, because we have put our hope in the living God, who is the Savior of all people, and especially of those who believe.

May your unfailing love be with us, Lord, even as we put our hope in you.

Neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

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.

Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.

Yet the Lord longs to be gracious to you; therefore he will rise up to show you compassion. For the Lord is a God of justice. Blessed are all who wait for him!

"My thoughts are not like your thoughts," says The Lord. "And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine. For just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts higher than your thoughts. "

Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom.

Know therefore that the LORD your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commandments.

However, I consider my life worth nothing to me; my only aim is to finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me—the task of testifying to the good news of God’s grace.

From the ends of the earth I call to you, I call as my heart grows faint; lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him.

Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.

Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.

Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails.

The steadfast of mind You will keep in perfect peace, because he trusts in You.

The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace.

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.

In vain you rise early and stay up late, toiling for food to eat—for he grants sleep to those he loves.

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.

I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.

God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging.

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.

Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.

But be sure to fear the Lord and serve him faithfully with all your heart; consider what great things he has done for you.

“Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
