never giving up

²⁵Act manfully, and let your heart be strengthened, all you who hope in the Lord.

¹²I know how to be humbled, and I know how to abound. I am prepared for anything, anywhere: either to be full or to be hungry, either to have abundance or to endure scarcity. ¹³Everything is possible in him who has strengthened me.

⁹And so, let us not be deficient in doing good. For in due time, we shall reap without fail.

¹²in hope, rejoicing; in tribulation, enduring; in prayer, ever-willing;

⁷Charity suffers all, believes all, hopes all, endures all.

²⁶“Be angry, but do not be willing to sin.” Do not let the sun set over your anger. ²⁷Provide no place for the devil. ²⁸Whoever was stealing, let him now not steal, but rather let him labor, working with his hands, doing what is good, so that he may have something to distribute to those who suffer need. ²⁹Let no evil words proceed from your mouth, but only what is good, toward the edification of faith, so as to bestow grace upon those who listen. ³⁰And do not be willing to grieve the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you have been sealed, unto the day of redemption. ³¹Let all bitterness and anger and indignation and outcry and blasphemy be taken away from you, along with all malice.

⁹Behold, I am instructing you. Be strengthened, and be steadfast. Do not dread, and do not fear. For the Lord your God is with you in all things, wherever you may go.”

⁶I am confident of this very thing: that he who has begun this good work in you will perfect it, unto the day of Christ Jesus.

¹⁰Do not be afraid, for I am with you. Do not turn away, for I am your God. I have strengthened you, and I have assisted you, and the right hand of my just one has upheld you.

²⁸Come to me, all you who labor and have been burdened, and I will refresh you. ²⁹Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am meek and humble of heart; and you shall find rest for your souls. ³⁰For my yoke is sweet and my burden is light.”

¹⁴But I will always have hope. And I will add more to all your praise.
