Pleasant Words from the Gospel

To Submit to God*

* To know that all forms of difficulty and tribulation come from God,
to trust in God alone and to beg for help from Him.

So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don't
fall! No temptation has seized you except what is common to

man. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted be-
yond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will
also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it. (1
Corinthians, 10:12-13)

Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you.
Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because
you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain. (1
Corinthians, 15:58)

But by faith we eagerly await through the Spirit of God the
righteousness for which we hope [in the hereafter]. (Galatians,
5:5)
