And those who know your name put their trust in you, for you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek you.

For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 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.

Know therefore that the Lord your God is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep his commandments, to thousand generations.

The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.

And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.

Who saved us and called us yo a holy calling, not because of his own purpose and grace, which he gave us in Christ Jesus before the ages began
