be acceptable to you, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer. -- Psalm 19:14

Love is patient and kind;

Love is not jealous or boastful;

it is not arrogant or rude.

Love does not insist on its own way;

it is not irritable or resentful;

it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right.

Love bears all things, believes all things,

hopes all things, endures all things. -- 1 Corinthians 13:4-7

But those who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength,

they shall mount up with wings like eagles,

they shall run and not be weary,

they shall walk and not faint. -- Isaiah 40:31

Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord.

He is like a tree planted by water, that sends out its roots by the stream,

and does not fear when heat comes, for its leaves remain green,

and is not anxious in the fear of drought,

for it does not cease to bear fruit. -- Jeremiah 17:7-8

Ask, and it will be given you; seek, and you will find;

knock, and it will be opened to you.

For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds,

and to him who knocks it will be opened. -- Matthew 7:7-8

Do you not know that you are God's temple

and that God's Spirit dwells in you?

No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man.

God is faithful, and He will not let you be tempted beyond your strength,

but with the temptation will also provide the way of escape,

that you may be able to endure it. -- 1 Corinthians 10:13

Consider Him who endured from sinners such hostility against himself,

so that you may not grow weary or fainthearted.

In your struggle against sin you have not yet resisted

to the point of shedding your blood. -- Hebrews 12:3-4

slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.

The Lord is good to all,

and His compassion is over all that He has made. -- Psalm 145:8-9

and favor is better than silver or gold. -- Proverbs 22:1

the cattle on a thousand hills. -- Psalm 50:10
