Trust in the lord with all your heart and do not rely on your own under standing; think about him in all your ways and he will guide you on the right paths

A gentle answer turns away anger but a harsh word stirs up wrath

For a child will be born for us a son will be given to us and the government will be on his shoulders He will be called wonderful conselor mighty God eternal father and prince of peace

The grass withers the flowers fade but the word of our God remains forever

The lord is good a stronghold in a day of distress he cares for those who take refuge in him
