We were talking about some encouraging scriptures in class today, and these are some i really appreciated. I get depressed alot, as we all do, and scriptures like these really help me. Are there any encouraging scriptures you can think of to share?
2 Cor. 4: 7-9, 16-18
7
However, we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the power beyond what is normal may be God’s and not that out of ourselves. 8 We are pressed in every way, but not cramped beyond movement; we are perplexed, but not absolutely with no way out; 9 we are persecuted, but not left in the lurch; we are thrown down, but not destroyed.16
Therefore we do not give up, but even if the man we are outside is wasting away, certainly the man we are inside is being renewed from day to day. 17 For though the tribulation is momentary and light, it works out for us a glory that is of more and more surpassing weight and is everlasting; 18 while we keep our eyes, not on the things seen, but on the things unseen. For the things seen are temporary, but the things unseen are everlasting.Ps. 27:10
In case my own father and my own mother should leave me, even Jehovah himself would take me up.
Rom. 8:35,38,39
Who will seperate ups from the love of the Christ? Will tribulation or distress or perhaps hunger or nakedness or danger or sword? For I am convinced that neither death nor life nor angels nor governments nor things now here nor things to come nor powers nor height nor depth nor any other creation will be able to seperate us from God's love that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Ps. 34:18
Jehovah is near to those that are broken at heart; and those who are crushed in spirit he saves.
