Psalm 19:3

There is no speech, nor are there words,
    whose voice is not heard.

Jeremiah 9:23-24

Thus says the Lord“Let not the wise man boast in his wisdom, let not the mighty man boast in his might, let not the rich man boast in his riches, but let him who boasts boast in this, that he understands and knows me, that I am the Lord who practices steadfast love, justice, and righteousness in the earth. For in these things I delight, declares the Lord.”

Psalm 19:7-11


The law of the Lord is perfect,
    reviving the soul;
the testimony of the Lord is sure,
    making wise the simple;
the precepts of the Lord are right,
    rejoicing the heart;
the commandment of the Lord is pure,
    enlightening the eyes;
the fear of the Lord is clean,
    enduring forever;
the rules of the Lord are true,
    and righteous altogether.
More to be desired are they than gold,
    even much fine gold;
sweeter also than honey
    and drippings of the honeycomb.
Moreover, by them is your servant warned;
    in keeping them there is great reward.

2 Timothy 2:14-17a

Remind them of these things, and charge them before God not to quarrel about words,which does no good, but only ruins the hearers.  Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth.  But avoid irreverent babble, for it will lead people into more and more ungodliness, and their talk will spread like gangrene.

Galations 6:9

So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up.

Galatians 6:9

I have been really thinking about this verse a lot. It applies so much to everyday life. Whether, I'm having a hard time with school or just dealing with problems that arise, it encourages me to keep trusting that God is going to bring good out of the situation and that I will reap the blessings if I(with Christ's help) continue to diligently persevere.

I hope that verse encourages you to keep doing good, even when it gets tough.
