- May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
- Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.
- Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
- God “will repay each person according to what they have done.”
- For from him and through him and for him are all things.
To him be the glory forever! Amen. - Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good.
- Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord.
- Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position. Do not be conceited.
- But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently.
- For just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others.
When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone.
