The Lord is good,
a stronghold in a day of trouble;
he protects those who take refuge in him.Examine yourselves to see whether you are living in the faith. Test yourselves. Do you not realize that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless, indeed, you fail to meet the test! Above all, maintain constant love for one another, for love covers a multitude of sins.Next verse!With image
