He is all we need...

Isaiah 53:4
Surely He has borne our griefs
      And carried our sorrows;
      Yet we esteemed Him stricken,
      Smitten by God, and afflicted.


Psalm 61:1-4
Hear my cry, O God;
         Attend to my prayer.
From the end of the earth I will cry to You,
         When my heart is overwhelmed;
         Lead me to the rock that is higher than I. 
For You have been a shelter for me,
         A strong tower from the enemy.
I will abide in Your tabernacle forever;
         I will trust in the shelter of Your wings.  Selah


Isaiah 25:4
For You have been a strength to the poor,
      A strength to the needy in his distress,
      A refuge from the storm,
      A shade from the heat;
      For the blast of the terrible ones is as a storm against the wall.


Insert: *whispers* The above passages would be great to write a song with!!


1 Timothy 6:12
Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.


Matthew 6:25,32
Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?
For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.

Why I'm doing this blog...

I've been meaning to start a blog or something of the sort to record all the verses that jumped out at me as I was reading... I'm gonna limit myself to 5 passages a day ... yes, a limit - BECAUSE - God's word is just SO GREAT!!!


Psalm 62:8
Trust in Him at all times, you people;
         Pour out your heart before Him;
         God is a refuge for us.  Selah  


Lamentations 3:22
Through the LORD’s mercies we are not consumed,
      Because His compassions fail not. 


Romans 8:23-25
Not only that, but we also who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our body. For we were saved in this hope, but hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees? But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with perseverance. 


Psalm 32:8-10
I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;
         I will guide you with My eye.
Do not be like the horse or like the mule,
         Which have no understanding,
         Which must be harnessed with bit and bridle,
         Else they will not come near you.
Many sorrows shall be to the wicked;
         But he who trusts in the LORD, mercy shall surround him.


Psalm 55:22 
Cast your burden on the LORD,
         And He shall sustain you;
         He shall never permit the righteous to be moved.


All bolded effects are added by me...
