It is comforting to know that with God, all trials and tribulations have a divine purpose. We are never alone. He told His disciples that they would be scattered, leaving Him alone, and yet "I am not alone, because the Father is with me. "These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. "In the world you have tribulation, but take courage, I have overcome the world." (John 16:32, 33)
"...I will never leave you, nor forsake you; therefore I can boldly say, 'The Lord is my helper; I will not fear what man can do to me" (Hebrews 13:5b,6). Trials develop godly character. "...we exult in our tribulations, knowing that tribulation brings about perseverance; and perseverance, proven character, and proven character, hope; and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us...

It is in the Book of John.
And the Word became Flesh and Dwelt Among Men.
(Jesus is The Word of GOD)
can you Imagine The Creator standing in front of all Those People---some Believed, some didn't.
Just Imagine That!
The Creator.

John 3:16 - This verse shows the undeserving love that God has for us.

2 Cor 12:9 would be one of many but it says "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness." Therefore I will boast about my weaknesses, that the power for Christ may dwell in me.'
I have so many weak areas in my life. I am a recovering alcoholic. I suffer from bipolar. I've been down some rough roads. But God has used all these weak areas to prove His power and I wouldn't trade them. Sometimes I get discouraged but I always am given His power to overcome when I ask.

I can't pick only one verse, but Proverbs 3 is my favorite.

Psalm 90:12 "teach us (me) to number our (my) days, that we (I) may apply our (my) hearts unto wisdom"
I don't want to live a foolish life of selfishness and ignorance. I want to study YVWH's word and contribute something to others, love others. This verse is very dear to me.

I can't say that I have one favorite, but I can say that I favor the stories of the old testament, and I enjoy the genealogy that is included in the old testament. However, I do enjoy the 4 Gospels too....since they tell us the precious story of our Lord and Savior's life.

"Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against one of your people, but love your neighbor as yourself." Because i use against believers who hate.
