Can any of you by worrying add a single moment to your life-span?
2 Corinthians 12:8-10
Three times I begged the Lord about this, that it might leave me, but he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness.” I will rather boast most gladly of my weaknesses, in order that the power of Christ may dwell with me. Therefore, I am content with weakness, insults, hardships, persecutions, and constraints, for the sake of Christ; for when I am weak, then I am strong.
Psalm 34:18-20
When the just cry out, the LORD hears and rescues them from all distress. The LORD is close to the brokenhearted, saves those whose spirit is crushed. Many are the troubles of the just, but the LORD delivers from them all.
Matthew 4:4
He said in reply, “It is written: ‘One does not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes forth from the mouth of God.'”

Let us not grow tired of doing good, for in due time we shall reap our harvest, if we do not give up.
2 Timothy 1:7
For God did not give us a spirit of cowardice but rather of power and love and self-control.
1 Thessalonians 5:14
We urge you, brothers, admonish the idle, cheer the fainthearted, support the weak, be patient with all.
Philippians 4:11-13
Not that I say this because of need, for I have learned, in whatever situation I find myself, to be self-sufficient. I know indeed how to live in humble circumstances; I know also how to live with abundance. In every circumstance and in all things I have learned the secret of being well fed and of going hungry, of living in abundance and of being in need. I have the strength for everything through him who empowers me.
1 Thessalonians 5:7-8
Those who sleep go to sleep at night, and those who are drunk get drunk at night. But since we are of the day, let us be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love and the helmet that is hope for salvation.
Luke 12:48
…Much will be required of the person entrusted with much, and still more will be demanded of the person entrusted with more.
