God I'm Just Grateful

[Ephesians 2:6] and raised us up with him, and made us to sit with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, [Ephesians 2:7] that in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus; [Ephesians 2:8] for by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, [Ephesians 2:9] not of works, that no one would boast. [Ephesians 2:10] For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared before that we would walk in them. [Ephesians 2:11] Therefore remember that once you, the Gentiles in the flesh, who are called “uncircumcision” by that which is called “circumcision” (in the flesh, made by hands),

[Titus 3:3] For we were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another. [Titus 3:4] But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love toward mankind appeared, [Titus 3:5] not by works of righteousness which we did ourselves, but according to his mercy, he saved us through the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit, [Titus 3:6] whom he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior; [Titus 3:7] that being justified by his grace, we might be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life. [Titus 3:8] This saying is faithful, and concerning these things I desire that you insist confidently, so that those who have believed God may be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable to men; [Titus 3:9] but shun foolish questionings, genealogies, strife, and disputes about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.

[Psalms 8:1] For the Chief Musician; on an instrument of Gath. A Psalm by David. LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens! [Psalms 8:2] From the lips of babes and infants you have established strength, because of your adversaries, that you might silence the enemy and the avenger. [Psalms 8:3] When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have ordained, [Psalms 8:4] what is man, that you think of him? What is the son of man, that you care for him? [Psalms 8:5] For you have made him a little lower than the angels, and crowned him with glory and honor. [Psalms 8:6] You make him ruler over the works of your hands. You have put all things under his feet: [Psalms 8:7] All sheep and cattle, yes, and the animals of the field,

[Revelation 4:6] Before the throne was something like a sea of glass, similar to crystal. In the middle of the throne, and around the throne were four living creatures full of eyes before and behind. [Revelation 4:7] The first creature was like a lion, the second creature like a calf, the third creature had a face like a man, and the fourth was like a flying eagle. [Revelation 4:8] The four living creatures, each one of them having six wings, are full of eyes around and within. They have no rest day and night, saying, “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God, the Almighty, who was and who is and who is to come!” [Revelation 4:9] When the living creatures give glory, honor, and thanks to him who sits on the throne, to him who lives forever and ever, [Revelation 4:10] the twenty-four elders fall down before him who sits on the throne and worship him who lives forever and ever, and throw their crowns before the throne, saying, [Revelation 4:11] “Worthy are you, our Lord and God, the Holy One, to receive the glory, the honor, and the power, for you created all things, and because of your desire they existed and were created!”

[Ephesians 1:5] having predestined us for adoption as children through Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his desire, [Ephesians 1:6] to the praise of the glory of his grace, by which he freely gave us favor in the Beloved. [Ephesians 1:7] In him we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace [Ephesians 1:8] which he made to abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence, [Ephesians 1:9] making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he purposed in him [Ephesians 1:10] to an administration of the fullness of the times, to sum up all things in Christ, the things in the heavens and the things on the earth, in him.

[Psalms 23:2] He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. [Psalms 23:3] He restores my soul. He guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. [Psalms 23:4] Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me. Your rod and your staff, they comfort me. [Psalms 23:5] You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil. My cup runs over. [Psalms 23:6] Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the LORD’s house forever.

[Psalms 73:21] For my soul was grieved. I was embittered in my heart. [Psalms 73:22] I was so senseless and ignorant. I was a brute beast before you. [Psalms 73:23] Nevertheless, I am continually with you. You have held my right hand. [Psalms 73:24] You will guide me with your counsel, and afterward receive me to glory. [Psalms 73:25] Whom do I have in heaven? There is no one on earth whom I desire besides you. [Psalms 73:26] My flesh and my heart fails, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. [Psalms 73:27] For, behold, those who are far from you shall perish. You have destroyed all those who are unfaithful to you. [Psalms 73:28] But it is good for me to come close to God. I have made the Lord GOD my refuge, that I may tell of all your works.

[Hebrews 13:3] Remember those who are in bonds, as bound with them, and those who are ill-treated, since you are also in the body. [Hebrews 13:4] Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled; but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers. [Hebrews 13:5] Be free from the love of money, content with such things as you have, for he has said, “I will in no way leave you, neither will I in any way forsake you.” [Hebrews 13:6] So that with good courage we say, “The Lord is my helper. I will not fear. What can man do to me?” [Hebrews 13:7] Remember your leaders, men who spoke to you the word of God, and considering the results of their conduct, imitate their faith. [Hebrews 13:8] Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

[Isaiah 46:1] Bel bows down. Nebo stoops. Their idols are carried by animals, and on the livestock. The things that you carried around are heavy loads, a burden for the weary. [Isaiah 46:2] They stoop and they bow down together. They could not deliver the burden, but they have gone into captivity. [Isaiah 46:3] “Listen to me, house of Jacob, and all the remnant of the house of Israel, that have been carried from their birth, that have been carried from the womb. [Isaiah 46:4] Even to old age I am he, and even to gray hairs I will carry you. I have made, and I will bear. Yes, I will carry, and will deliver. [Isaiah 46:5] “To whom will you compare me, and consider my equal, and compare me, as if we were the same? [Isaiah 46:6] Some pour out gold from the bag, and weigh silver in the balance. They hire a goldsmith, and he makes it a god. They fall down— yes, they worship.

[Psalms 121:3] He will not allow your foot to be moved. He who keeps you will not slumber. [Psalms 121:4] Behold, he who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. [Psalms 121:5] The LORD is your keeper. The LORD is your shade on your right hand. [Psalms 121:6] The sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. [Psalms 121:7] The LORD will keep you from all evil. He will keep your soul. [Psalms 121:8] The LORD will keep your going out and your coming in, from this time forward, and forever more.

[Romans 12:1] Therefore I urge you, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service. [Romans 12:2] Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God. [Romans 12:3] For I say through the grace that was given me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of yourself more highly than you ought to think; but to think reasonably, as God has apportioned to each person a measure of faith. [Romans 12:4] For even as we have many members in one body, and all the members don’t have the same function,

[Psalms 134:1] A Song of Ascents. Look! Praise the LORD, all you servants of the LORD, who stand by night in the LORD’s house! [Psalms 134:2] Lift up your hands in the sanctuary. Praise the LORD! [Psalms 134:3] May the LORD bless you from Zion, even he who made heaven and earth.

[Psalms 118:15] The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents of the righteous. “The right hand of the LORD does valiantly. [Psalms 118:16] The right hand of the LORD is exalted! The right hand of the LORD does valiantly!” [Psalms 118:17] I will not die, but live, and declare the LORD’s works. [Psalms 118:18] The LORD has punished me severely, but he has not given me over to death. [Psalms 118:19] Open to me the gates of righteousness. I will enter into them. I will give thanks to the LORD. [Psalms 118:20] This is the gate of the LORD; the righteous will enter into it.

[Acts 26:22] Having therefore obtained the help that is from God, I stand to this day testifying both to small and great, saying nothing but what the prophets and Moses said would happen, [Acts 26:23] how the Christ must suffer, and how, by the resurrection of the dead, he would be first to proclaim light both to these people and to the Gentiles.” [Acts 26:24] As he thus made his defense, Festus said with a loud voice, “Paul, you are crazy! Your great learning is driving you insane!” [Acts 26:25] But he said, “I am not crazy, most excellent Festus, but boldly declare words of truth and reasonableness. [Acts 26:26] For the king knows of these things, to whom also I speak freely. For I am persuaded that none of these things is hidden from him, for this has not been done in a corner. [Acts 26:27] King Agrippa, do you believe the prophets? I know that you believe.”
