"Not that I speak from want, for I
have learned to be content in whatever circumstances I am. I know how to
get along with humble means, and I also know how to live in prosperity;
in any and every circumstance I have learned the secret of being filled
and going hungry, both of having abundance and suffering need."
Philippians 4:11-12
"There
is an appointed time for everything. There is a time for every event
under heaven--a time to give birth and a time to die; a time to plant
and a time to uproot what is planted.
"A time to kill and a time to heal; a
time to tear down and a time to build up. A time to weep and a time to
laugh; a time to mourn and a time to dance.
"A time to throw stones and a time to
gather stones; a time to embrace and a time
to shun embracing. A time to search and a time to give up as lost; a
time to keep and a time to throw
away.
"A time to tear apart and a time to
sew together; a time to be silent and a time to
speak. A time to love and a time to hate; a time for war and a time for
peace."
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
"Light arises in the darkness for
the upright; He is gracious and compassionate and righteous.
It is well with the man who is gracious and lends; He will maintain his
cause in judgment."
Psalm 112:4-5
"Without consultation, plans are
frustrated, but with many counselors they succeed. A man has joy in an
apt answer, and how delightful is a timely word!"
Proverbs 15:22-23
"Therefore
I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a
living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual
service of worship.
"Do not be conformed to this world,
but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove
what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and
perfect."
Romans 12:1-2
"I can do all things through Him who
strengthens me."
Philippians 4:13
"If any of you lacks wisdom, let him
ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it
will be given to him. He must ask in faith without any doubting, for the
one who doubts is like the surf of the sea, driven and tossed by the
wind."
James 1:5-6
"Every prudent man acts with
knowledge, but a fool displays folly."
Proverbs 13:16
