Sunday Scripture Verses
Zephaniah 3:14-17
2 Corinthians 12:1-10
Luke 17:20-21
 Two Comforting Words from God to You!
1. I was spiritually dead in my sin,
but God has made me spiritually alive. "But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us" (Ephesians 2:4).
2. I am called to keep God's righteous commandments, which I fail to fulfill,
but God has given me the Holy Spirit to help me. I now have all the help I need and will call upon that help. (John
14:15-18).
3. I am not perfect,
but God because of Jesus has taken away my condemnation. (2 Corinthians
5:21).
4. There are things I will not be good at,
but God has created and called me to joyfully serve him in specific ways. (Ephesians
2:10)
