John 9:4-5 I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
KJV

Rom 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

I have always been moved as I read my Bible that the shortest verses in the Bible seem to say the most. The longest verse in the Bible is said to be Esther 8:9 (Est 8:9 Then were the king’s scribes called at that time in the third month, that is, the month Sivan, on the three and twentieth day thereof; and it was […] -

John 14:1-3 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
2 In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

Ps 121:1-4 I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.

Ps 4:1-3 Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness: thou hast enlarged me when I was in distress; have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.
2 O ye sons of men, how long will ye turn my glory into shame? how long will ye love vanity, and seek after leasing? Selah.
3 But know that the Lord hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the Lord will hear when I call unto him.

Gen 15:1 After these things the word of the Lord came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward.
KJV
After these things point to a time when Abraham went out to save his nephew Lot and God reminded Abraham that he would always have a shield of protection and a reward for trusting his God. The child of God today will experience many “after these things” times in his […] -

3 For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.
KJV
I meditate often on the words in verse two above, “The joy set that was set before him”. […]
