1 Corinthians 13:13

Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good;
Blessed is the man who trusts in Him!

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.

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

A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows,
    is God in his holy dwelling.

I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
    your works are wonderful,
    I know that full well.

For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.

Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.

You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.

Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good;
Blessed is the man who trusts in Him!

 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.

 

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.

Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters,

Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.

These people come near to me with their mouth
    and honor me with their lips,
    but their hearts are far from me.
Their worship of me
    is based on merely human rules they have been taught.

The name of the Lord is a fortified tower;
    the righteous run to it and are safe.

But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,

A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows,
    is God in his holy dwelling.

He who finds a wife finds what is good
    and receives favor from the Lord.

Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.

I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits,
    and in his word I put my hope.

you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.

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

But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been done in the sight of God. 

The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.
2   He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,

Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.

“In your anger do not sin”: Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry,

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—

The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.
