Kerry Morley

It is easy to question your path in life, your decisions that you have made, and even your faith. Finding my place in my faith was one of my biggest accomplishments this year and has taught me so many things about peers, my God, and myself. As I read my Bible I like to highlight my favorite verses and share them with my friends and family. These 20 bible quotes may spark your interest again in your faith, may help you through a tough time, and may be reminders of how great our world and God is.

  • Psalms 46:5 “God is within her, she will not fail.”
  • James 1:3 “Because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.”
  • Philippians 4:13 “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”
  • Matthew 6:33 “Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.”
  • Colossians 3:23 “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for me.”

  • Hebrews 11:6 “And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.”
  • 2 Timothy 1:7 “For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and self-discipline.”

  • Romans 12:2 “Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.”
  • 1 Corinthians 13:4-5 “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.”

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
