But love your enemies, do what is good, and lend, expecting nothing in return. Then your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High. For he is gracious to the ungrateful and evil.

Now without faith it is impossible to please God, since the one who draws near to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.

Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you believe so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

The one who walks with the wise will become wise, but a companion of fools will suffer harm.

Give thanks to the Lord, call on his name; proclaim his deeds among the peoples.

Don’t you yourselves know that you are God’s temple and that the Spirit of God lives in you?

Anxiety in a person’s heart weighs it down, but a good word cheers it up.

Don’t say, “I will avenge this evil!” Wait on the Lord, and he will rescue you.

If you abide in Me and My voice abides in you, anything you ask will come to pass for you.

But I will sing of your strength and will joyfully proclaim your faithful love in the morning. For you have been a stronghold for me, a refuge in my day of trouble.
