And the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will Himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.

We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair.

Call on Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you will honor Me.

But to you who are listening I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you.

Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.

“I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.

Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you.

Do not repay evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary, bless, for to this you were called, that you may obtain a blessing.

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.

[He] who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.

Peacemakers who sow in peace reap a harvest of righteousness.

When times are good, be happy; but when times are bad, consider this: God has made the one as well as the other. Therefore, no one can discover anything about their future.

We work hard with our own hands. When we are cursed, we bless; when we are persecuted, we endure it;

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

So we are Christ’s ambassadors; God is making His appeal through us. We speak for Christ when we plead, “Come back to God!”

He must become greater; I must become less.

Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.

Those who cling to worthless idols turn away from God’s love for them.

Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labor in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the city, the guards stand watch in vain.

Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past.

For the wisdom of this world is foolishness in God’s sight. As it is written: “He catches the wise in their craftiness”;

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.

But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

God made Him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.

How priceless is Your unfailing love, O God! People take refuge in the shadow of Your wings.

Don’t let the excitement of youth cause you to forget your Creator. Honor Him in your youth before you grow old and say, “Life is not pleasant anymore.” NLT

Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and He will establish your plans.

And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of His glory in Christ Jesus.

So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.
