Praise the LORD!

Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior, who daily bears our burdens. ~ Psalm 68:19 (NIV)

He Loved

14 Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up,15 that everyone who believes may have eternal life in him.”

16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.

~ John 3:14-18 (NIV)

Living Hope

3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade. This inheritance is kept in heaven for you, ~ 1 Peter 1:3-4 (NIV)

Guide me in Your truth and teach me, for You are God my Savior, and my hope is in You all day long. ~ Psalm 25:5 (NIV)

2 Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when Christ appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is. 3 All who have this hope in him purify themselves, just as he is pure. ~ 1 John 3:2-3 (NIV)
