If you wish to add your own verses to the thread please do - it doesn't matter if the same verse is posted twice :) Blessings for your day, Vonny

'Come, let us reason together'.

Jesus says' No-one can come to the Father but through me' (John14 v 6) Denise

'Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come. But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.' Matthew 24:42-44 (NIV)

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy ,peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness,faith, Meekness,temperance: against such there is no law. Galations chapter 5.. King James.

Thank you for adding, Midlands Girl, Denise, Jayvee and Scarlett Rose - nice verses, very appropriate. Vonny

Good morning, great rejoicing all over Australia as we woke up to the good news this morning that the miners were free :) Vonny

Promise of the Resurrection For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17

Thank you Carol (x2) for your additions. Lovely. Vonny

This is the day that the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it. Psalm 118. v24.

Joy, I was just singing that to myself and thought, I'll just add it and you already had :) have a great day everyone. Vonny

'O come, let us sing unto the LORD: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation. Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms. For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods. In his hand are the deep places of the earth: the strength of the hills is his also. The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land. O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our maker.'

Good (early) morning all :) Carol, what a great passage, one of my favourites also. Vonny

Thank you Anne, lovely verse indeed. Good morning (or afternoon) to all. Vonny

Great Thread... thankyou....Good Morning Vonny. This is my favourite and one of many that seemed to jump out at me when I first believed. Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me. In my Father's house are many rooms: if it were not so, I would have told you.I am going there to prepare a place for you . And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also will be where I am. John 14 verse 1-4....NIV. Wow what a promise.. This is great comfort in this troubled world. Hetty.

Love fulfilleth the law. Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him;if he thirst,give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good. Romans chapter 12 v 20 and 21. King James version.

Great contributions Hetty and Scarlet, thank you for sharing. Vonny

In Baptism we are members of Gods family. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations,baptising them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. St Matthew chapter 28 v. 19 and 20

Luke 19:1-10 [1] Jesus entered Jericho and was passing through. [2] A man was there by the name of Zacchaeus; he was a chief tax collector and was wealthy. [3] He wanted to see who Jesus was, but being a short man he could not, because of the crowd. [4] So he ran ahead and climbed a sycamore-fig tree to see him, since Jesus was coming that way. [5] When Jesus reached the spot, he looked up and said to him, 'Zacchaeus, come down immediately. I must stay at your house today.' [6] So he came down at once and welcomed him gladly. [7] All the people saw this and began to mutter, 'He has gone to be the guest of a 'sinner.' ' [8] But Zacchaeus stood up and said to the Lord, 'Look, Lord! Here and now I give half of my possessions to the poor, and if I have cheated anybody out of anything, I will pay back four times the amount.' [9] Jesus said to him, 'Today salvation has come to this house, because this man, too, is a son of Abraham. [10] For the Son of Man came to seek and to save what was lost.'
