1 Corinthians 13:13

For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.

If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.

Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ.

“But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord,
    whose confidence is in him.

For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through the endurance taught in the Scriptures and the encouragement they provide we might have hope.

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.

Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.

Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;

Surely God is my salvation;
I will trust and not be afraid.
The LORD, the LORD himself, is my strength and my defense;
he has become my salvation.

I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
    your works are wonderful,
    I know that full well.

Therefore, since we have these promises, dear friends, let us purify ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, perfecting holiness out of reverence for God.

Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.

Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.

But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

I can do all this through him who gives me strength.

So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.

You will keep in perfect peace
    those whose minds are steadfast,
    because they trust in you.

Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.
