For as with the close of the day, so with that of life; there may be clouds, and yet if the horizon is clear, the evening may be beautiful.

For as with the close of the day, so with that of life; there may be clouds, and yet if the horizon is clear, the evening may be beautiful.
To be released from the absorbing affairs of life, to feel that one has earned a claim to leisure and repose, is surely in itself no evil.
It is liberating to know you are strong enough to handle the challenges of life. It is calming to know that you will bounce back if things don't work out the way you desire. No defeat defines you. No failure is final. What's meant for you will choose you.
Life becomes better and days become lighter when you focus more on appreciating little things and less on big worries. At some point you realise that peace is more important than trying to please others. Genuine people, happy heart and good health are real luxuries.
Therefore accept one another, even as Christ also accepted you, to the glory of God.
He alone is my rock, my salvation, and my fortress. I will never be greatly shaken.
Consider the ravens: they don’t sow, they don’t reap, they have no warehouse or barn, and God feeds them. How much more valuable are you than birds!
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
Even so, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father who is in heaven.
Cast your burden on Yahweh and he will sustain you. He will never allow the righteous to be moved.
I sought Yahweh, and he answered me, and delivered me from all my fears.
Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in Yahweh’s house forever.
For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that through perseverance and through encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.
He will call on me, and I will answer him. I will be with him in trouble. I will deliver him, and honor him.
In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.
Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but Yahweh delivers him out of them all.
My soul rests in God alone. My salvation is from him.
Not that I speak because of lack, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content in it.
See that no one returns evil for evil to anyone, but always follow after that which is good for one another and for all.
He will cover you with his feathers. Under his wings you will take refuge. His faithfulness is your shield and rampart.
Yahweh of Armies is with us. The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.
I will not leave you orphans. I will come to you.
For you will bless the righteous. Yahweh, you will surround him with favor as with a shield.
Yahweh, in the morning you will hear my voice. In the morning I will lay my requests before you, and will watch expectantly.
