Philippians 2:14-16, New International Version

14 Do everything without complaining or arguing, 15 so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe 16 as you hold out the word of life—in order that I may boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor for nothing.

Jeremiah 17:7-8, Amplified Version

7 [Most] blessed is the man who believes in, trusts in, and relies on the Lord, and whose hope and confidence the Lord is.

8 For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters that spreads out its roots by the river; and it shall not see and fear when heat comes; but its leaf shall be green. It shall not be anxious and full of care in the year of drought, nor shall it cease yielding fruit.

I Timothy 2:3-4, New King James Version

3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, 4 who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of truth.

I Thessalonians 5:4-5, New International Version

4 But you, brothers, are not in darkness so that this day should surprise you like a thief. 5 You are all sons of the light and sons of the day. We do not belong to the night or to the darkness.

Psalms 34:14-19, New American Standard Bible

14 Depart from evil and do good; 

Seek peace and pursue it.

15 The eyes of the LORD are toward the righteous 

And His ears are open to their cry.

16 The face of the LORD is against evildoers, 

To cut off the memory of them from the earth.

17 The righteous cry, and the LORD hears 

And delivers them out of all their troubles.

18 The LORD is near to the brokenhearted 

And saves those who are crushed in spirit.

19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous, 

But the LORD delivers him out of them all.
