You, my brothers, were called to be free.
But do not use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature;
rather, serve one another in love.

He will guard the feet of his saints,
but the wicked will be silenced in darkness.
It is not by strength that one prevails.

Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him and he will do this:
He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn,
the justice of your cause like the noonday sun.

But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen and
protect you from the evil one.

Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified;
do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.

Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy,
and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven,
where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal.

Call to Me and I will answer you and tell you
great and unsearchable things you do not know.

Blessed is the man whom God corrects;
so do not despise the discipline of the Almighty.

Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk,
so that by it you may grow up in your salvation.

This is how God showed his love among us:
He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.
