Ephesians 3:8b
This grace was given me: to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ.

To be rich in God is far better than to be rich in the world.

2Corinthians 1:4
who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God.

God comforts us to make us comforters, not to make us comfortable.

Psalms 32:7
You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance.

When God gives a burden, He gives the Grace to bear it.

Ephesians 2:8-9
For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith — and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God —not by works, so that no one can boast.

Grace; getting what we don’t deserve.
Mercy; not getting what we deserve.

Psalms 19:7
The law of the LORD is perfect, reviving the soul. The statutes of the LORD are trustworthy, making wise the simple.

Matthew 18:32-33
“Then the master called the servant in. ‘You wicked servant,’ he said, ‘I canceled all that debt of yours because you begged me to. Shouldn’t you have had mercy on your fellow servant just as I had on you?’

Rejoice, O soul, the debt is paid,
All our sins on Christ were laid.

Hebrews 12:1b-22
...let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.
Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before
him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

It’s not the Olympic Games where they prance with pride,
Christians know, for us it was Christ who died.

1John 3:10
This is how we know who the children of God are and who the children of the devil are:
Anyone who does not do what is right is not a child of God; nor is anyone who does not love his brother.

It’s our responsibilities that should be taken seriously not ourselves.

Luke 2:14
“Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests.”

Peace on earth would mean an end to the human race as we know it.

God’s Work in us isn’t over when we receive Christ; it has just begun.

Colossians 3:23
Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men,

All Chrisians have the same employer, they just have different jobs.

2Corinthians 7:10
Godly sorrow brings repentance that leads to salvation and leaves no regret,
but worldly sorrow brings death.

Misery through conviction and joy through confession.
Thank you Lord.

John 7:37
On the last and greatest day of the Feast, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink.

God is inescapable, embrace him now or answer him later.

Romans 1:21
For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him,
but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened.

The world said I’ve earned all these delights,
By my own hand I’m clothed and well fed.
Christians look up to God,
And give Him thanks for their daily bread.

Philippians 1:12
Now I want you to know, brothers, that what has happened to me has really served to advance the gospel.

We can not control the wind,
but we can adjust our sails.
