The Lord says, “I will guide you along thebest pathway for your life. I will advise you and watch over you.”

Wisdom shouts in the streets. She cries out in the public square.

“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.”

Love never fails [never fades out or becomes obsolete or comes to an end].

Its hopes are fadeless under all circumstances, and it endures everything [without weakening].

Love bears up under anything.

Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.

Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise.

“For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”

Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life.

“All things are possible to him who believes.”

And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully.

We love because he first loved us.

Yes, everything else is worthless when compared with the infinite value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord.

So faith comes from hearing, that is, hearing the Good News about Christ.

For when we place our faith in Christ Jesus, there is no benefit to being circumcised or uncircumcised. What is important is faith expressing itself in love.
