1 Corinthians 13:13

who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.

You make known to me the path of life;
    you will fill me with joy in your presence,
    with eternal pleasures at your right hand.

This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.

Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.

The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.

The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.

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

 The Lord appeared to us in the past, saying:

“I have loved you with an everlasting love;
    I have drawn you with unfailing kindness.

Who is wise and understanding among you? Let them show it by their good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom.

But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.
