Favorite Verse: Ecclesiastes 7:10-14 Say not thou, What is the cause that the former days were better than
these? For thou dost not enquire wisely concerning this. Wisdom is good with an
inheritance: and by it there is profit to them that see the sun. For wisdom is a defence, and money is a defence:
but the excellency of knowledge is, that wisdom giveth life to them that have it. Consider
the work of God: for who can make that straight, which he hath made crooked? In the day of
prosperity be joyful, but in the day of adversity consider: God also hath set the one over
against the other, to the end that man should find nothing after him.

Favorite Verses:
Philippians 2:12-13 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence
only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and
trembling. For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good
pleasure.
2 Corinthians 5:17-20 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.
