5Have confidence in the Lord with all your heart, and do not depend upon your own prudence. 6In all your ways, consider him, and he himself will direct your steps. 7Do not seem wise to yourself.

21And Jesus responded to them by saying: “Amen I say to you, if you have faith and do not hesitate, not only shall you do this, concerning the fig tree, but even if you would say to this mountain, ‘Take and cast yourself into the sea,’ it shall be done.

31And immediately Jesus extended his hand and took hold of him. And he said to him, “O little in faith, why did you doubt?”

5But if anyone among you is in need of wisdom, let him petition God, who gives abundantly to all without reproach, and it shall be given to him. 6But he should ask with faith, doubting nothing.

27Next, he said to Thomas: “Look at my hands, and place your finger here; and bring your hand close, and place it at my side. And do not choose to be unbelieving, but faithful.”

11For I know the thoughts that I think over you, says the Lord: thoughts of peace and not of affliction, so that I may give you patience and an end. 12And you shall call upon me, and you shall go forth. And you shall pray to me, and I will heed you. 13You shall seek me. And you will find me, when you have sought me with your whole heart.
