Consider it complete joy, my brothers, whenever you fall into various kinds of trials,  because you know that the testing of your faith produces patient endurance.  And let patient endurance finish its work, so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.  (James 1:2-4)

“[Jesus] had to go through Samaria”  (John 4:4)

Hey, all of you who are thirsty, come to the water, even if you have no money!  Come, buy and eat!  Come, buy wine and milk without money and without cost.  ² Why do you spend money on something that is not bread?  Why do you waste your labor on something that does not satisfy?  Listen carefully to me, and eat what is good.  Satisfy your appetite with rich food.  (Isaiah 55:1-2)

“I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.”  (Acts 20:27)

“What will separate us from the love of Christ? Will trouble or distress or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword?  Just as it is written:  For your sake we are being put to death all day long. We are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.  No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.   For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor rulers, neither things present nor things to come, nor powerful forces, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.”  (Romans 8:35-39)

“I did not hesitate to proclaim to you the whole counsel of God.”  (Acts 20:27)
