Hi Janice,

That was a very compelling list.  There certainly are a great amount of scripture on the suffering and afflictions we must go through.  Thanks for sharing that with us.

mercy, peace and love

Janice, thank you so much for sharing this list with us, I know how much work it can take to put something like this together!  You are a blessing!

Peace and love,

Thanks all, but only copying and pasting was involved.  I keep a running set of several/many scriptural theme papers that I continually add to and that I use mainly for myself and friends and my grown niece and nephew as well as a few new others… exposing them to the Word without preaching one word.  Ha!  Ain’t God grand?  It's all right there.  Over time, I am incorporating these compilations into my mini-ministries. :)

Yes Joe, these verses viewed collectively actually comfort me.  What else can I say?  It's what I call 'home' and now I know why.

Cathy... great idea to keep this list in our pocketbooks!  While waiting in awful lines or for appointments or car service to be completed, stuck in traffic, whatever... they serve as good grounding Words, and we know the outcome... God's unfolding love.  :) :) :)

It is my hope that future forum readers will benefit by them... as they certainly are right there for us in plain sight without much mystery.

May the One Who knows us completely before we even existed be praised!   :D
And He will see us through it all!  Amen!   ;)

Hi Janice,

This is great! I copied and pasted these verses into my computer, so I have them on hand. Thank you so much. :)

Hi Cathy,

I guess your situation is one that God gave to you to help you exercise your faith. I found Jude 19, 20, 21.

These are sensual persons, who cause divisions, not having the Spirit. But you beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, keeping yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.

Isn't it great? As painful as it can get, where would we be if we didn't have all these God-given opportunities to overcome?

Love,

Ursula

"My brethren, COUNT IT ALL JOY when you fall into diverse temptations: knowing this, that the trying of your faith works patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that you may be PERFECT AND ENTIRE, WANTING NOTHING"  (James 1:2-4).
 
"Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto SALVATION ready to be revealed in the last time.  Wherein you GREATLY REJOICE, though now for a season, if need be, you are in heaviness through manifold temptation: That the trial of your faith, being MORE PRECIOUS THAN GOLD that perishes, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto PRAISE AND HONOUR AND GLORY at the appearing of Jesus Christ"  (I Pet. 1:5-7).
 
To them who by PATIENT CONTINUANCE IN WELL DOING [enduring severe trials with a joyful attitude] seek for GLORY AND HONOR AND IMMORTALITY, ETERNAL LIFE"  (Rom. 2:7).
