highlighted Ephesians 5:29-33 ESV
For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church,because we are members of his body."Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh."This mystery is profound, and I am saying that it refers to Christ and the church.However, let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.

David Cook
highlighted James 4:13-17 ESV
Come now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit"—yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes.Instead you ought to say, "If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that."As it is, you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil.So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin.

highlighted James 4:11-12 ESV
Do not speak evil against one another, brothers. The one who speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge.There is only one lawgiver and judge, he who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor?

For now no strength remains in me, and no breath is left in me."

For the vision is for days yet to come."
