Particular Bible verses to help you (from the book)?

[AntonelaMaria]

In sickness...

"Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will.”

Matthew 26:39

[AntonelaMaria]

This one also can apply when in sickness...

"Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us."

[AntonelaMaria]

in sadness and grief...

"Blessed are those who mourn,
for they will be comforted."

Matthew 5:4

[AntonelaMaria]

another one very powerful also when in grief...

"Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, 4 who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God."

2 Corinthians 1:3-4

[AntonelaMaria]

in temptations...

"Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you."

James 4:7

[AntonelaMaria]

When I need pick me up...

"Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. 12 Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you."
Matthew 5:11-12

[AntonelaMaria]

When I need peace..

“Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me. My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going.”
John 14:1-4

[AntonelaMaria]

When I feel weak...

"Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain."
1 Corinthians 15:58

[AntonelaMaria]

"Just then a man came up to Jesus and asked, “Teacher, what good thing must I do to get eternal life?”
“Why do you ask me about what is good?” Jesus replied. “There is only One who is good. If you want to enter life, keep the commandments.”
“Which ones?” he inquired.
Jesus replied, “‘You shall not murder, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not steal, you shall not give false testimony, honor your father and mother,and ‘love your neighbor as yourself.”
“All these I have kept,” the young man said. “What do I still lack?”
Jesus answered, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”
When the young man heard this, he went away sad, because he had great wealth."

Matthew 19:16-22

[AntonelaMaria]

"But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says:
“God opposes the proud
but shows favor to the humble.

James 4:6

[AntonelaMaria]

"But to each one of us grace has been given as Christ apportioned it."
Ephesians 4:7

[AntonelaMaria]

"That has come to you. In the same way, the gospel is bearing fruit and growing throughout the whole world – just as it has been doing among you since the day you heard it and truly understood God's grace."
Colossians 1:6

[AntonelaMaria]

"But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me."

2 Corinthians 12:9

[AntonelaMaria]

I really like the way the writer explains revelations of the Bible that are so had to grasp the meaning. I like Ephesians 2:8_9

"For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast"

[AntonelaMaria]

"Who saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works but because of his own purpose and grace, which he gave us in Christ Jesus before the ages began."

2 Timothy 1:9
