Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good.

my God, in whom I trust.”

I will tell of all your deeds

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? As it is written:
“For your sake we face death all day long;
we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.”No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.

I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.

and my portion forever.

Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth.

Because of the LORD’s great love we are not consumed,
for his compassions never fail.

They are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;

in all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make your paths straight.

Do not judge, or you too will be judged.

The LORD is gracious and compassionate,
slow to anger and rich in love.
