Do not be grieved, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.

Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the gospel of God,and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.”

I will meditate on Your precepts and fix my eyes on Your ways. I will delight in Your statutes; I will not forget Your word.

Put off your old self, which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful desires, and...put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.

For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

Let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith.

And He said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.” Immediately they left their nets and followed Him.

He saved us...by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit, whom He poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that being justified by His grace we might become heirs according to the hope of eternal life. The saying is trustworthy.

For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to His great mercy, He has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you.

Let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.
