A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.”James 1:17Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.Proverbs 21:21Whoever pursues righteousness and love    finds life, prosperity[a] and honor.Psalms 37:4Take delight in the Lord,    and he will give you the desires of your heart.2 Timothy 1:7For God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.God has a plan for you and our nation, and we're here to help you find itwww.quizthediz.comFacebookLinkedIn
