And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love.
Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for
today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can
separate us from God’s love. No power in the sky above or in the earth
below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us
from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord. (NLT)

knows me completely. (NLT)

Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away,
yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and
momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far
outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what
is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
(NIV)
Philippians 3:7-9
But what things were gain to me, these I have counted loss for Christ.
Yet indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the
knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of
all things, and count them as rubbish, that I may gain Christ and be
found in Him, not having my own righteousness, which is from the
law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness
which is from God by faith ... (NKJV)
Ephesians 3:17-19
Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your
roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. And may you
have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how
long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of
Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be
made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from
God. (NLT)
Ephesians 3:20-21

within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think.
Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations
forever and ever! Amen. (NLT)
Hebrews 10:19-23
And so, dear brothers and sisters, we can boldly enter heaven’s Most
Holy Place because of the blood of Jesus. By his death, Jesus opened a
new and life-giving way through the curtain into the Most Holy Place.
And since we have a great High Priest who rules over God’s house, let us
go right into the presence of God with sincere hearts fully trusting
him. For our guilty consciences have been sprinkled with Christ’s blood
to make us clean, and our bodies have been washed with pure water. Let
us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be
trusted to keep his promise. (NLT)
James 1:2-4
Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials,
knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. And let
endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and
complete, lacking in nothing. (NASB)
