Lately life has been a little crazy, and nothing keeps me grounded more than turning to the Lord himself. The verses below are personally some of my favorite, most inspiring quotes, and I hope you love them as much as I do!

1) 1 John 3:18

"Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth."

This one is my all time favorite, reading it makes me realize the type of love people have and how they show it. When thinking about love I know that I am loved through action and in truth.

2) Ephesians 2:19-22

"Whenever you are feeling unloved, unimportant, or insecure, remember to whom you belong."

I personally connect with the this specific part of the Ephesians passage because it's so easy to feel down and no wanted. And then I remember loving myself and God is way more important than the people that make you feel unloved. This is one I read on the daily because it reminds me of my importance and the reason I am here today.

3) Phillippians 4:13

"I can do anything through Christ who gives me Strength."

This is definitely one of the more known and popular verses. It shows us God is the highest power and he gives us the strength to conquer the hardest of times.

4) Colossians 3:13

"Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you."

Sometimes it's hard for us to forgive someone who has wronged us, but, sometimes we forget that the Lord's son died for our sins, and died for us to live.

5) John 5:13

"Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends."

6) Joshua 10:25

"Joshua said to them, “Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. Be strong and courageous. This is what the LORD will do to all the enemies you are going to fight.”

God is constantly reminding us of his presence, even if it's a challenging time, he reminds us of our worth and how strong he knows we are.

7) 1 Peter 3:9-11

"Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult. On the contrary, repay evil with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing. 10 For, “Whoever would love life and see good days must keep their tongue from evil and their lips from deceitful speech. 11 They must turn from evil and do good; they must seek peace and pursue it."

I hope you think about how these passages personally connect to you, and use them to create a better version of yourself.
