imposter As cliché and annoying-Christian as it sounds, my bible. It just helps so much, and gives me so much.

Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance.

James 1:2-3

girl_jane Perserverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.

James 1:4

I just thought I'd add the fourth...2 and 3 should be followed by four...I like it better that way.

girl_jane Also-look just a couple pages later.

1 Peter 1:8-9

Though you hav not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and you are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, for you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls.


But there are a lot of passages I could type here...

imposter I love that part in 1 Peter, it is one of my favourites! Wow, that's really scary, girl_jane -- that is also the favourite verse of someone very, very special to me.

This is the verse that brings me more joy and comfort than any other, my absolute favourite:

"Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love."
1 John 4:7-8

Throw in 1 Corinthians 13 (cliche, yes, but its still beautiful and powerful) and Hebrews 11:13-16, and, yeah. . .

minnesota_chris Romans 8:18, For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory that is to be revealed to us.

My mom made me memorize that one. Her oldest boy died slowly of leukemia at age 6. She's going to have a pretty cool heaven.
