1 Corinthians 13:13

For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.

For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through the endurance taught in the Scriptures and the encouragement they provide we might have hope.

For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.

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.

You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
