and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways submit to him,
and he will make your paths straight. - I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits,
and in his word I put my hope. - The Almighty is beyond our reach and exalted in power;

and my hope is in you all day long. - Blessed are the pure in heart,

did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage;
rather, he made himself nothing
by taking the very nature of a servant,
being made in human likeness.

he humbled himself
by becoming obedient to death—
even death on a cross! - For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.”

the Maker of heaven and earth. - Taste and see that the Lord is good;
blessed is the one who takes refuge in him. - And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.
You, therefore, have no excuse, you who pass judgment on someone else, for at whatever point you judge another, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do the same things. Walk in obedience to all that the Lord your God has commanded you, so that you may live and prosper and prolong your days in the land that you will possess.Next verse!With image
