So We Can Confidently Say, “The Lord

9 But You Are A Chosen People, A Royal Priesthood, A Holy Nation, God’s Special Possession, That You May Declare The Praises Of Him Who Called You Out Of Darkness Into His Wonderful Light. 10 Once You Were Not A People, But Now You Are The People Of God; Once You Had Not Received Mercy, But Now You Have Received Mercy. 11 Dear Friends, I Urge You, As Foreigners And Exiles, To Abstain From Sinful Desires, Which Wage War Against Your Soul.

Greater Love Has No One Than This: To Lay Down One’s Life For One’s Friends.

Be Strong And Courageous. Do Not Fear Or Be In Dread Of Them, For It Is The Lord Your God Who Goes With You. He Will Not Leave You Or Forsake You.”

Oh, Taste And See That The Lord Is Good! Blessed Is The Man Who Takes Refuge In Him!

Trust In The Lord With All Your Heart, And Do Not Lean On Your Own Understanding. In All Your Ways Acknowledge Him, And He Will Make Straight Your Paths.
