Faith Hope Love
I will give thanks to you, Lord, with all my heart;
I will tell of all your wonderful deeds.
The Lord appeared to us in the past, saying:
“I have loved you with an everlasting love;
I have drawn you with unfailing kindness.
I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.
But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one.
God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.
You will keep in perfect peace
those whose minds are steadfast,
because they trust in you.
Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.
He who finds a wife finds what is good
and receives favor from the Lord.
Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ.
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers,
The name of the Lord is a fortified tower;
the righteous run to it and are safe.
The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.
2 He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,
Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’
All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness,
Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;
And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you.
Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.
Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
He who finds a wife finds what is good
and receives favor from the Lord.
Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.
Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead,
“He himself bore our sins” in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; “by his wounds you have been healed.”
Why, my soul, are you downcast?
Why so disturbed within me?
Put your hope in God,
for I will yet praise him,
my Savior and my God.
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.
Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.
Gray hair is a crown of splendor;
it is attained in the way of righteousness.
No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.
Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ.
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
However, as it is written:
“What no eye has seen,
what no ear has heard,
and what no human mind has conceived”—
the things God has prepared for those who love him—
Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.
However, I consider my life worth nothing to me; my only aim is to finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me—the task of testifying to the good news of God’s grace.
Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed,for his compassions never fail.

For I am the Lord your God
who takes hold of your right hand
and says to you, Do not fear;
I will help you.
