Take delight in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart.

When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy.

Take delight in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart.

Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.

I sought the LORD, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears.

Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me.

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.

Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.

Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

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

Hatred stirs up conflict, but love covers over all wrongs.

But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked.

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

If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.

Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.

We love because he first loved us.

Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.

A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.

And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.

Do everything in love.

Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.

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.

Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings.

Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.

Blessed are those who act justly, who always do what is right.

The LORD loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of his unfailing love.
