Put on your new nature, and be renewed as you learn to know your Creator and become like him.

But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint.

He gives power to the weak and strength to the powerless.

I love God’s law with all my heart.

Therefore, since God in his mercy has given us this new way, we never give up.

Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.

I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit.

he saved us, not because of the righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He washed away our sins, giving us a new birth and new life through the Holy Spirit.

Yet I am confident I will see the Lord’s goodness while I am here in the land of the living.

Instead, let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes.

My health may fail, and my spirit may grow weak, but God remains the strength of my heart; he is mine forever.

You should clothe yourselves instead with the beauty that comes from within, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is so precious to God.

So, my dear brothers and sisters, be strong and immovable. Always work enthusiastically for the Lord, for you know that nothing you do for the Lord is ever useless.

I will gladly spend myself and all I have for you, even though it seems that the more I love you, the less you love me.

Create in me a clean heart, O God. Renew a loyal spirit within me.

Good people pass away; the godly often die before their time. But no one seems to care or wonder why. No one seems to understand that God is protecting them from the evil to come.For those who follow godly paths will rest in peace when they die.

And after my body has decayed, yet in my body I will see God!I will see him for myself. Yes, I will see him with my own eyes. I am overwhelmed at the thought!

I am worn out waiting for your rescue, but I have put my hope in your word.

Give us each day the food we need,

So if your eye— even your good eye— causes you to lust, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.And if your hand— even your stronger hand— causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.
