Colossians 1:3
"Then the Lord said: Go out and stand on the mountain before the Lord; the Lord will pass by. There was a strong and violent wind rending the mountains and crushing rocks before the Lord—but the Lord was not in the wind; after the wind, an earthquake—but the Lord was not in the earthquake; after the earthquake, fire—but the Lord was not in the fire; after the fire, a light silent sound. When
he heard this, Elijah hid his face in his cloak and went out and stood
at the entrance of the cave. A voice said to him, Why are you here,
Elijah?"
1 Kings 19: 11-13
"Love is patient, love is kind. It is not jealous, is not pompous, it is not inflated, it is not rude, it does not seek its own interests, it is not quick-tempered, it does not brood over injury, it does not rejoice over wrongdoing but rejoices with the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things."
1 Corinthians 13: 4-7
"There is an appointed time for everything,
and a time for every affair under the heavens.

a time to mourn, and a time to dance.

A time to seek, and a time to lose;
a time to keep, and a time to cast away.

Ecclesiastes 3: 1-8
“Therefore I tell you,
do not worry about your life, what you will eat [or drink], or about
your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food and the body
more than clothing? Look
at the birds in the sky; they do not sow or reap, they gather nothing
into barns, yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are not you more
important than they? Can any of you by worrying add a single moment to your life-span? Why are you anxious about clothes? Learn from the way the wild flowers grow. They do not work or spin. But I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was clothed like one of them. If
God so clothes the grass of the field, which grows today and is thrown
into the oven tomorrow, will he not much more provide for you, O you of
little faith? So do not worry and say, ‘What are we to eat?’ or ‘What are we to drink?’ or ‘What are we to wear?’ All these things the pagans seek. Your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. But seek first the kingdom [of God] and his righteousness, and all these things will be given you besides. Do not worry about tomorrow; tomorrow will take care of itself. Sufficient for a day is its own evil. "
Matthew 6: 25-34
"Peace
I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I
give it to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid."
John 14:27
