Where the Real News is the Good News

For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous
    and his ears are attentive to their prayer,
but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.

Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment.

Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword?

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—

When anxiety was great within me,
    your consolation brought me joy.
