Psalm 103:11-12 [niv]
"For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is His love for those who fear him; as far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us."
Seek the Lord and His strength; seek His presence continually. Remember the wonderful works He has done, His miracles, and the judgements He has uttered, O offspring of His servant Abraham, children of Jacob, His chosen ones.
Matthew 13:37-39
He answered, "He who sows the good seed is the Son of man; the field is the world, and the good seed means the sons of the kingdom; the weeds are the sons of the evil one, and the enemy who sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the close of the age, and the reapers are angels.
For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
Philippians 4:8
"And now, brothers, as I close this letter let me say this one more thing: Fix your thoughts on what is true and good and right. Think about things that are pure and lovely, and dwell on the fine, good things in others. Think about all you can praise God for and be glad about."
Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and aliens, but
fellow citizens with Gods people and members of Gods household,
built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ
Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone.
-- Ephesians 2:19-20
The Lord [is] in his holy temple, the Lord's throne [is] in heaven: his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men. The Lord trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.
Although you have not seen Him, you love Him; and even tho you do not see Him now, you believe in Him and rejoice with indescribable and glorious joy, for you are receiving the outcome of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
"Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life. Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth."
So God said to Noah, "This is the sign of the covenant. I have established between me and all life on the earth." Genesis 9:15-17. (NIV)
