Words of Wisdom and Comfort from The Bible:
..what doth the Lord require of
thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly
with thy God?
Micah 6, 8 (King James Version)
How
clearly the sky reveals God's glory!
How
plainly it shows what he has done!
Each
day announces it to the following day;
each
night repeats it to the next.
No
speech or words are used, no sound is heard;
yet
their message goes out to all the world
and
is heard to the ends of the earth.
Psalm 19, 1-4 (Good News
Bible)
The LORD is my shepherd, I shall
not want;
He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still
waters;
He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for
his name's sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I
fear no evil; for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff, they
comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
thou anointest my head with oil, my cup overflows.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my
life; and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
Psalm 23 (Revised Standard Version)
Be still and know that I am God
Psalm 46:10 (Revised Standard Version)
Why is my pain unceasing, my
wound incurable, refusing to be healed? Wilt thou be to me like
a deceitful brook, like waters that fail?
Therefore thus says the LORD: "If you return, I will
restore you, and you shall stand before me. If you utter what is
precious, and not what is worthless, you shall be as my mouth.
..seek ye first the
kingdom of God..
Matthew 6:33 (King James Version)
Judge not, that you may not be
judged. Matthew
7:1 (Douay-Rheims Version)
In the beginning was the Word,
and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John 1:1 (Revised
Standard Version)
Peace
I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives
do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it
be afraid.
John
14:27 (Revised Standard Version)
I will tell you the truth, you
will weep and mourn while the world rejoices. You will grieve,
but your grief will turn to joy. John 16:20 (New
International Version)
If I speak in the tongues of men
and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a
clanging cymbal.
And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and
all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove
mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.
If I give away all I have, and if I deliver my body to be
burned, but have not love, I gain nothing.
Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful;
it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way;
it is not irritable or resentful;
it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right.
Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things,
endures all things.
Love never ends; as for prophecies, they will pass away; as for
tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away.
For our knowledge is imperfect and our prophecy is imperfect;
but when the perfect comes, the imperfect will pass away.
When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a
child, I reasoned like a child; when I became a man, I gave up
childish ways.
For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I
know in part; then I shall understand fully, even as I have been
fully understood.
So faith, hope, love abide, these three; but the greatest of
these is love.
1 Corinthians 13 (Revised Standard Version)
But the fruit of the Spirit is
love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
gentleness, self-control... Galatians
5:22 (Revised Standard Version)
For anyone who does not love his
brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not
seen. And He has given us this command: Whoever loves God must
also love his brother.
1 John 4: 20-21 (New International Version)
And God shall wipe away all tears
from their eyes: and death shall be no more. Nor mourning, nor
crying, nor sorrow shall be any more, for the former things are
passed away.
Revelation 21:4 (Douay-Rheims
Version)
