From my mom “a wise man changes his mind, a fool never does” Too many to list from the Bible but these are reassuring regarding His work in our lives!! God bless this place ? Ephesians 2:4-10 King James Version (KJV) 5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) 6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: 7 That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. Matthew 6:34 Psalm 103:5 These awesome Truths rock my soul, too ~~ ~ ~ "The men were amazed and asked, "What kind of Man is this that even the winds and the waves obey Him!" ~ ~ . . Matthew 8:27 ahh, the Authority of Jesus, our God, ~ ~ "You of little faith,” ~~ “why are you so afraid?” Mighty is our God and Creator of Whom all creation is subject to Christ's Authority ~~ our Lord, ever in control ever Sovereign ~~ ~ ~ "Then Jesus stood up again and said to the woman, "Where are your accusers? Didn't even one of them condemn you?" ~ ~ . John 8:10 . . "Neither do I, go and sin no more " . . Who is this Man speaking Authoritatively to forgive as God? . . C.S. Lewis gets it: "Jesus is either Who He says He is, or He is a lunatic" and we know what Jesus thinks of 'lukewarmness' ~~ Set your minds on the things that are above, not on things that are on earth (Colossians 3:2) Isaiah 55:12-13 “Nothing touches me that hasn’t passed through the hand of my Heavenly Father. Nothing! Everything I endure is designed to prepare me for serving others more effectively. Everything!” -Dr. Chuck Swindoll Matthew 6:19-21 Storing up treasures isn't a bad thing. So long as they are Heavenly treasures. I love this verse as well. How exciting to know that after salvation, as we go through the justification and purification process, we can accrue "treasures" in Heaven! And the best way to accomplish this is to "treasure" what He treasures! Also with Him being our ultimate treasure, it's also humbly comforting to know that He considers us His treasure! :yes: TR For me it includes Romans 8........that's the one i would keep if i could keep no other. However, I also like Psalms 103:8-14 "8The Lord is merciful and gracious, Blessings: Whit
4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,
Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.
For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands. :yahoo:
19 “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; 20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.
9 He will not always accuse,
nor will he keep his anger forever.
10 He does not deal with us according to our sins,
nor repay us according to our iniquities.
11 For as the heavens are high above the earth,
so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him;
12 as far as the east is from the west,
so far he removes our transgressions from us.
13 As a father has compassion for his children,
so the Lord has compassion for those who fear him.
14 For he knows how we were made;
he remembers that we are dust."
