4. "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. John 3:16 Philippians 4:6 Romans 12:2 Galatians 2:20 Romans 6:23 Romans 12:1 Ephesians 2:8 Philippians 4:7 Romans 8:28 Psalms 1:1

And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; John 3:16 Philippians 4:6 Romans 12:2 Galatians 2:20 Romans 6:23 Romans 12:1 Ephesians 2:8 Philippians 4:7 Romans 8:28 Psalms 1:1
