Blessings upon blessings! We love you. Daddy & Mother
He was sheer weakness and humiliation when he was killed on the cross, but oh, he’s alive now
—in the mighty power of God! 2 Corinthians 13:4 (The Message)
You are a chosen people.
You are royal priests, a holy nation, God’s very own possession. As a result, you can show others the goodness of God, for he called you out of the darkness into his wonderful light. 1 Peter 2:9 (New Living Translation)
In this new life one’s nationality or race or education or social position is unimportant
such things mean nothing. Whether a person has Christ is what matters, and he is equally available to all. Colossians 3:11 (Living Bible)
Real life and real living
are not related to how rich we are. [Jesus] Luke 12:15 (Living Bible)
Wisdom is a rare commodity.
Paul urges believers, then and now, to walk wisely. It involves living well every day. Ephesians 5:21 (The Voice)
I always remember that the Lord is with me.
He is here, close by my side, so nothing can defeat me. Psalm 16:8 (Easy-to-Read Version)
My prayer for you is that you will overflow more and more with love for others
and at the same time keep on growing in spiritual knowledge and insight. Philippians 1:9 (Living Bible)
If we are living now by the Holy Spirit’s power
let us follow the Holy Spirit’s leading in every part of our lives. Galatians 5:25 (Living Bible)
Now we see things imperfectly
like puzzling reflections in a mirror, but then we will see everything with perfect clarity. All that I know now is partial and incomplete, but then I will know everything completely, just as God now knows me completely. 1 Corinthians 13:12 (New Living Translation)
You, beloved, are worth so much more than a whole flock of sparrows.
God knows everything about you, even the number of hairs on your head. So do not fear. Matthew 10:30-31 (The Voice)
May God our Father himself and our Master Jesus clear the road to you!
And may the Master pour on the love so it fills your lives and splashes over on everyone around you. 1 Thessalonians 3:11-13 (The Message)
Keep awake! Watch at all times.
The devil is working against you. He is walking around like a hungry lion with his mouth open. He is looking for someone to eat. 1 Peter 5:8 (New Life Version)
Exercise your freedom by serving God
not by breaking the rules. Treat everyone you meet with dignity. Love your spiritual family. Revere God. Respect the government. 1 Peter 2:13 (The Message)
There is a time to cry, and a time to laugh
a time to have sorrow, and a time to dance. Ecclesiastes 3:4 (New Life Version)
With every sun’s rising, surprise us with Your love
satisfy us with Your kindness. Then we will sing with joy and celebrate every day we are alive. Psalm 90:14 (The Voice)
Kind words are like honey
sweet to the taste and good for your health. Proverbs 16:24 (Good News Translation)
Stay focused on Jesus
who designed and perfected our faith. He endured the cross and ignored the shame of that death because He focused on the joy that was set before Him; and now He is seated beside God on the throne, a place of honor. Hebrews 12:2 (The Voice)
Splendor and majesty are in his presence.
Strength and joy are where he is. 1 Chronicles 16:27 (GOD’S WORD Translation)
If you walk around with your nose in the air, you’re going to end up flat on your face.
But if you’re content to be simply yourself, you will become more than yourself. Luke 14:11 (The Message)
Trust the Lord
and sincerely worship him; think of all the tremendous things he has done for you. 1 Samuel 12:24 (Living Bible)
The nations are nothing but a drop in the bucket,
only a smidgen on the scales by the reckoning of God. He can pick up entire islands as if they are grains of dirt. Even if we had all the resources of Lebanon —all of its trees to burn for fuel, all of its animals for burnt offerings— How could we think that we’ve got […]
Do away with any talk that twists and distorts the truth
have nothing to do with any verbal trickery. Proverbs 4:24 (The Voice)
