Even youths grow tired and weary,
and young men stumble and fall;
but those who hope in the Lord
will renew their strength.
*They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. ~ 1 Corinthians 13:4-7

but those who hope in the Lord will inherit the land. ~ Psalm 37:7-9

But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. ~ John 16:13
