Encouragement - Christian e-cards

For the Lord God is a sun and shield;
The Lord will give grace and glory;
No good thing will He withhold
From those who walk uprightly.

Even the sparrow has found a home,
and the swallow a nest for herself,
where she may lay her young even Your altars,
O LORD of hosts, My King and my God.

And being found in appearance as a man,
He humbled Himself and became
obedient to the point of death,
even the death of the cross.

Being confident of this very thing,
that He who has begun a good work in you
will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ;

For who is God, except the LORD?
And who is a rock, except our God?

The Lord God is my strength;
He will make my feet like deer’s feet,
And He will make me walk on my high hills.

But now, O Lord,You are our Father;
We are the clay, and You our potter;
And all we are the work of Your hand.

And now, Lord, what do I wait for?
My hope is in You.

Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help,
Whose hope is in the Lord his God,
Who made heaven and earth,
The sea, and all that is in them;
Who keeps truth forever.

Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help,
Whose hope is in the Lord his God.

Do not cast me off in the time of old age;
do not forsake me when my strength fails.

In hope of eternal life which God,
who cannot lie, promised before time began

For You will light my lamp;
The Lord my God will enlighten my darkness.

For I consider that the sufferings
of this present time are not worthy
to be compared with the glory
which shall be revealed in us.

O Israel, hope in the Lord;
For with the Lord there is mercy,
And with Him is abundant redemption.

If You, Lord, should mark iniquities,
O Lord, who could stand?
But there is forgiveness with You,
That You may be feared.

Therefore, having been justified by faith,
we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

My soul faints for Your salvation,
But I hope in Your word.

I am small and despised,
Yet I do not forget Your precepts.

It is good that one should hope and wait quietly
For the salvation of the Lord.

So Jesus said to them again,
Peace to you!

As the Father has sent Me,
I also send you.

Jesus came and stood in the midst,
and said to them, “Peace be with you.”

He is despised and rejected by men,
A Man of sorrows and acquainted with grief.
And we hid, as it were, our faces from Him;
He was despised, and we did not esteem Him.

The Lord is good to those who wait for Him,
To the soul who seeks Him.
