Forgive Yourself and Be Free
Therefore, there is now no condemnation
for those who are in Christ Jesus,
because through Christ Jesus the law
of the Spirit who gives life has set you
free from the law of sin and death.—Romans 8:1–2 NIV
Jesus
Jesus Knows
Because he himself suffered when
he was tempted, he is able to help
those who are being tempted.—Hebrews 2:18 NIV
The Master Carpenter
When the Sabbath came, he began to teach in
the synagogue, and many who heard him were
amazed. “Where did this man get these things?”
they asked. “What’s this wisdom that has been
given him? What are these remarkable miracles
he is performing? Isn’t this the carpenter?
Isn’t this Mary’s son and the brother of James,
Joseph, Judas and Simon? Aren’t his sisters
here with us?” And they took offense at him.—Mark 6:2–3 NIV
Rooted in Jesus
So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.—Colossians 2:6–7 NIV
Safe in His Palm
If the Lord delights in a man’s way, he makes
his steps firm; though he stumble, he will not
fall, for the Lord upholds him with his hand.—Psalm 37:24–25 NIV
Beyond Expectation
Now to him who is able to do immeasurably
more than all we ask or imagine, according
to his power that is at work within us.—Ephesians 3:20 NIV
Are You Ready?
You also must be ready all the time,
for the Son of Man will come
when least expected.—Luke 12:40 NLT
Jesus’ Voice
My sheep recognize my voice. I know
them, and they follow me.—John 10:27 MSG
Love with All You’ve Got
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. And the second
is like it: “Love your neighbor as yourself.”—Matthew 22:37–39 NIV
The Power of the Shortest Verse
Jesus wept.—John 11:35 NIV
The Source of Courage
Do you not know? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.—Isaiah 40:28-29 NIV
When You Can’t Pray
My prayer is not for them alone.
I pray also for those who will believe
in me through their message.—John 17:20 (NIV)
