So don't get tired of doing what is good. Don't get discouraged and give up, for we will reap a harvest of blessing at the appropriate time. Whenever we have the opportunity, we should do good to everyone, especially to our Christian brothers and sisters"

Get all the advice and instruction you can, and be wise the rest of your life. You can make many plans, but the LORD's purpose will prevail. Loyalty makes a person attractive. And it is better to be poor than dishonest"

There is no other name in all of heaven for people to call on to save them"
(Acts 4:8-12) (NLT).

"And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice- the kind he will accept. When you think of what he has done for you, is this too much to ask? Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will know what God wants you to do, and you will know how good and pleasing and perfect his will really is"
(Romans 12:1-2) (NLT).
