The Bible is full of amazing stories and verses, obviously it would be considering its the word of God. Here are some of my favorite stories and verses from the bible.
Matthew 14:22-33
"Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowd.After he had dismissed them, he went up on a mountainside by himself to pray. Later that night, he was there alone,and the boat was already a considerable distance from land, buffeted by the waves because the wind was against it.Shortly before dawn Jesus went out to them, walking on the lake.26 When the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified. “It’s a ghost,” they said, and cried out in fear,But Jesus immediately said to them: “Take courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.”“Lord, if it’s you,” Peter replied, “tell me to come to you on the water.”“Come,” he said.Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus.But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!” Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. “You of little faith,” he said, “why did you doubt?”
This is a popular story because it shows us ow we should be able to trust and why we should put of faith in God. He can handle anything you are going through.
Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
This one is pretty self explanatory, we need to live one day at a time and go with the flow of God's plan for us.
John 15:13
Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.
You've heard this since you were little but never really understood how important it is. Jesus died on the cross, not for glory or fame but for us. Every single one of us. He loves us more than we can even fathom, we will never understand the depths of his love.
1 Corinthians 16:13
Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong.
Being a Christian isn't easy, you have to go through a lot of challenges on top of the Devil trying to bring you down. Never give up! It will be worth it in the end!
Isaiah 40:28-31
Do you not know? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom.He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
You've probably heard this verse in that song Everlasting God, just try to focus on the words and realize how strong he is.
