ESV   “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.  1 Peter 1:3 ESV   Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ!

ESV  See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him.  1 John 4:16 ESV   So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.  Romans 8:37-39 ESV  No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.  Galatians 2:20 ESV /  I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me.
