- Surely your goodness and unfailing love will pursue me
all the days of my life,
and I will live in the house of the Lord
forever. - That is why I tell you not to worry about everyday life—whether you have enough food and drink, or enough clothes to wear. Isn’t life more than food, and your body more than clothing?
- So letting your sinful nature control your mind leads to death. But letting the Spirit control your mind leads to life and peace.
- For you know that God paid a ransom to save you from the empty life you inherited from your ancestors. And it was not paid with mere gold or silver, which lose their value. It was the precious blood of Christ, the sinless, spotless Lamb of God.
- The rich can pay a ransom for their lives,
but the poor won’t even get threatened. - Then he said, “Beware! Guard against every kind of greed. Life is not measured by how much you own.”
- Whatever you give is acceptable if you give it eagerly. And give according to what you have, not what you don’t have.
- Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me.”
- I have written this to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know you have eternal life.
- And this is the way to have eternal life—to know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, the one you sent to earth.
- Even so, I have noticed one thing, at least, that is good. It is good for people to eat, drink, and enjoy their work under the sun during the short life God has given them, and to accept their lot in life.
- He will give eternal life to those who keep on doing good, seeking after the glory and honor and immortality that God offers.
- But now you are free from the power of sin and have become slaves of God. Now you do those things that lead to holiness and result in eternal life.
- I will never forget your commandments,
for by them you give me life. - The thief’s purpose is to steal and kill and destroy. My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life.
- We know what real love is because Jesus gave up his life for us. So we also ought to give up our lives for our brothers and sisters.
- For since our friendship with God was restored by the death of his Son while we were still his enemies, we will certainly be saved through the life of his Son.
- But each day the Lord pours his unfailing love upon me,
and through each night I sing his songs,
praying to God who gives me life. - For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.
- By his divine power, God has given us everything we need for living a godly life. We have received all of this by coming to know him, the one who called us to himself by means of his marvelous glory and excellence.
- The one thing I ask of the Lord—
the thing I seek most—
is to live in the house of the Lord all the days of my life,
delighting in the Lord’s perfections
and meditating in his Temple. - But don’t be so concerned about perishable things like food. Spend your energy seeking the eternal life that the Son of Man can give you. For God the Father has given me the seal of his approval.
- Your unfailing love is better than life itself;
how I praise you!
I will praise you as long as I live,
lifting up my hands to you in prayer. - The Lord is my light and my salvation—
so why should I be afraid?
The Lord is my fortress, protecting me from danger,
so why should I tremble? - Give, and you will receive. Your gift will return to you in full—pressed down, shaken together to make room for more, running over, and poured into your lap. The amount you give will determine the amount you get back.
