  9. What a wonderful list of scriptures. I especially love #5. I am so glad he loves me with an everlasting love. That is truly a comfort to me.
    Thanks for visiting my T13.

  13. This is such a great inspirational list. I like number 4 and 7. I really like them all. This was really refreshing today, thank you.

    I’m up too.

  17. These were beautiful. # 3 actually brought tears to my eyes and partly because I was thinking about this kind of idea, about why Jesus died for our sins today. Um, I read an incredible scary book called The Road, I don’t want to give away the plot, but it works like an allegory and has resonances to the Jesus story only it is set after a terrible apocalyspe in the near future in America. It’s very good…and somehow that particular verse really resonated with me today.

    My little list, not as profound as yours is here:
