Eyes of the Lord

For the eyes of the Lord range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him.

Scripture

All scripture is God-breathed, and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.

Hope

Even youths grow tired and weary,
and young men stumble and fall,
31But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
They will run and not grow weary,
They will walk and not be faint.

Wisdom

If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him.

Choose for yourselves

But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your forefathers served beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.

Words

Pleasant words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones.

Plans

Commit to Lord whatever you do, and your plans will succeed.

Laziness

One who is slack in his work is brother to one who destroys.

Shout for joy

Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth.
2Worship the Lord with gladness; come before him with joyful songs.
3Know that the Lord is God.
It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.
4Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise;
Give thanks to him and praise his name.
5For the Lord is good and his love endures forever;
His faithfulness continues through all generations.

Help

I lift up my eyes to the hills—where does my help come from?
2My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.
3He will not let your foot slip—
he who watches over you will not slumber;
4Indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.
5The Lord watches over you—the Lord is your shade at your right hand;
6The sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night.
7The Lord will keep you from all harm—he will watch over your life;
8The Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.

Earth

The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it,
The world, and all who live in it.
2For he founded it upon the seas,
And established it upon the waters.
3Who may ascend the hill of the Lord?
Who may stand in his holy place?
4He who has clean hands and a pure heart
Who does not lift up his soul to an idol,
Or swear by what is false.
5He will receive blessing from the Lord,
And vindication from God his savior.
6Such is the generation of those who seek him,
Who seek your face, O God of Jacob.

Open the door

Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me.

Wages of sin

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

No condemnation

Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, 2because through Jesus Christ the law of the Spirit of life set me free from the law of sin and death.

Wind

I saw you toss the kites on high
And blow the birds about the sky;
And all around I heard you pass,
Like ladies’ skirts across the grass—
O wind, a-blowing all day long,
O wind, that sings so loud a song!

I saw the different things you did,
But always you yourself you hid.
I felt you push, I heard you call,
I could not see yourself at all—
O wind, a-blowing all day long,
O wind, that sings so loud a song!

O you that are so strong and cold,
O blower, are you young or old?
Are you a beast of field and tree,
Or just a stronger child than me?
O wind, a-blowing all day long,
O wind, that sings so loud a song!

Boats

Dark brown is the river,
Golden is the sand.
It flows along for ever,
With trees on either hand.

Green leaves a-floating,
Castles of the foam,
Boats of mine a-boating--
Where will all come home?

On goes the river
And out past the mill,
Away down the valley,
Away down the hill.

Away down the river,
A hundred miles or more,
Other little children
Shall bring my boats ashore.
