Where the Real News is the Good News

Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful.

No weapon formed against you shall prosper,
And every tongue which rises against you in judgment
You shall condemn.
This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord,
And their righteousness is from Me,”
Says the Lord.

And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an examplefor the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.

The Lord is my light and my salvation—
    whom shall I fear?
The Lord is the stronghold of my life—
    of whom shall I be afraid?

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.

Many are the plans in the mind of a man,
    but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand.

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

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

If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. 6 But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind.
