Recently I have just started to get into my faith, and navigating the bible has not been the easiest thing I've ever taken the time to do.

As I read through the thin pages and see words inked in every spot, I think about some of my favorite, as well as people who are close to me, and what exactly they mean, and why these specific words lay heavy on the heart.

On that note, here are 15 favorite bible verses from amazing people that I feel have helped me, and potentially others get into their faith:

1. Colossians 3:12- Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kind. ness, humility, gentleness and patience.
