The one who calls you is faithful, and he will do it.

God is faithful, who has called you into fellowship with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

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

A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a time of adversity.

God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.

“In my distress I called to the LORD; I called out to my God. From his temple he heard my voice; my cry came to his ears.”

“I called to the LORD, who is worthy of praise, and have been saved from my enemies.”

My God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation. He is my stronghold, my refuge and my savior– from violent people you save me.

Keep me safe, LORD, from the hands of the wicked; protect me from the violent, who devise ways to trip my feet.

We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed.

May the LORD answer you when you are in distress; may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.

Do not forsake wisdom, and she will protect you; love her, and she will watch over you.

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.

Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.”

But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one.

Keep me as the apple of your eye; hide me in the shadow of your wings.

By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work.

The LORD detests lying lips, but he delights in people who are trustworthy.

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”

Very truly I tell you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be judged but has crossed over from death to life.

Very truly I tell you, the one who believes has eternal life.

“Very truly I tell you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be judged but has crossed over from death to life.”

I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!” Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.”

Be strong and take heart, all you who hope in the LORD.

Be strong and take heart, all you who hope in the LORD.

Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and wait for the LORD.

Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong.

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
