“With joy you will drink deeply from the fountain of salvation!”

Isaiah 12:3 NLT

The unfolding of Your words gives light; It gives understanding to the simple.
Psalms 119:130 NASB1995

A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a broken spirit saps a person's strength. Proverbs 17:22 be blessed. ;]

“Behold, the virgin shall be with child and shall bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel,” which translated means, “God with us.”
Matthew 1:23 NASB1995

10:22am
“ But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness. ”
(1 John 1:9 NLT)

So if we have enough food and clothing, let us be content. 1 Timothy 6:8

“ Some people make cutting remarks, but the words of the wise bring healing. ”
(Proverbs 12:18 NLT)

“ Fire goes out without wood, and quarrels disappear when gossip stops. ”
(Proverbs 26:20 NLT)

All inclination, desire, and affection comes from likeness, for all things tend toward and love their likes. The pure man loves purity, the just man loves and inclines to justice; a man's lips speak of what is within, just as our Lord says, "Out of the fullness of the heart the mouth speaks" (Luke 6:45), and Solomon says, "All of the labor of a man is in his mouth" (Ecceles. 6:7). Thus it is a sure sign that not God but creature is in a man's heart if he finds attachment and consolation without. And therefore a virtuous man should be very ashamed before God, and in his own eyes, if he becomes aware that God is not in him, and God the Father is not active in him, but that the wretched creature is still living and yearning in him and acting in him.

For I know that this will turn out for my deliverance through your prayer and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, according to my earnest expectation and hope that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death.
