yello62:
jeremiah 9:23-24:

paraphrased the verse says don't boast about what you think you have in this physical life, strength, riches, wisdom, but rather boast about intimacy with The Eternal.  these two versus hit me 20 years ago.  at this point, i understand these two versus to be talking about the gift of eternal life as defined in john 17:3.   too cool. 

david 4:

this chapter speaks to God's overall responsibility for all things.  nebuchadnezzar thought he was something because he had done some things.   God showed him otherwise.  love this chapter.

hosea:

shows how much God loves us and looks past us and our "issues", read sins, to His love for us.  awesome, freaking awesome.

Gina:
Luke 18

1 Now He was telling them a parable to show that at all times they ought to pray and not to lose heart,

2 saying, “In a certain city there was a judge who did not fear God and did not respect man.

3 “There was a widow in that city, and she kept coming to him, saying, ‘Give me legal protection from my opponent.’

4 “For a while he was unwilling; but afterward he said to himself, ‘Even though I do not fear God nor respect man,

5 yet because this widow bothers me, I will give her legal protection, otherwise by continually coming she will wear me out.’”

6 And the Lord said, “Hear what the unrighteous judge said;

7 now, will not God bring about justice for His elect who cry to Him day and night, and will He delay long over them?

8 “I tell you that He will bring about justice for them quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on the earth?”

G. Driggs:
1Co 3:13  Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is.
1Co 3:14  If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.
1Co 3:15  If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.
 
Rev 20:13  And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.
Rev 20:14  And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
Rev 20:15  And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

Looking forward to the day when all the filth is burned away and Jesus saves me from sin and death.

Gina:
Lamentations 3:52 Those who were my enemies without cause hunted me like a bird.

Psalm 141:10 Let the wicked fall into their own nets, while I pass by in safety.

Psalm 7:15  He made a pit, and digged it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made.

Proverbs 28:10 He who leads the upright along an evil path will fall into his own trap, but the blameless will receive a good inheritance.
