This is why you are great, Lord God. There is no one like you, and there is no God besides you, as all we have heard confirms.

Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you thinks he is wise in this age, let him become a fool so that he can become wise.

Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.

Blessed be the Lord! Day after day he bears our burdens; God is our salvation.

For God loved the world in this way: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.

I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.

And my God will supply all your needs according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God.

When I am filled with cares, your comfort brings me joy.

Each person should do as he has decided in his heart—not reluctantly or out of compulsion, since God loves a cheerful giver.
