all things work together for good for those who love GOD and are called according to HIS purpose

The author of Hebrews writes:

For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account." (Hebrews 4:12-13)

1 Corinthians 16:13

Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men,

be strong.

Philippians 3:14

I press toward the mark for the prize of the high

calling of God in Christ Jesus.

1Cor.13

"Faith is the victory that overcomes the world and without faith it is impossible to please God."
John 5:4

When winning isn't everything, it sure is nice to know that faith gets you to the finish line. John 5:4 connects God's pleasure with your success. This scripture goes even further in its connections. Linking an individual's faith to the betterment of the world is a glory-giving way to look at the value of one's faith.

2Cor.4:8,9,16&18
8-We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed, we are perplexed, but not in despair;
9-Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;
16-For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
18-While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen; for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.

Love ye One another.
