- Hope deferred makes the heart sick,
but when longing is fulfilled, it is a tree of life. - I thank you and praise you,

For who among men knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so, no one knows the things of God except God’s Spirit. Whom, not having known, you love. In him, though now you don’t see him, yet believing, you rejoice greatly with joy that is unspeakable and full of glory, receiving the result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.Next verse!With image
