Bless the LORD, O my soul! O LORD my God, you are very great! You are clothed with splendor and majesty, covering yourself with light as with a garment, stretching out the heavens like a tent. Posted on Wed, 02 Jan 2013 00:01:00 -0600 at http://www.gnpcb.org/esv/search/?passage=Psalm+104%3A1-2

My son, do not despise the LORD's discipline or be weary of his reproof, for the LORD reproves him whom he loves, as a father the son in whom he delights. Posted on Thu, 06 Sep 2012 00:01:00 -0500 at http://www.gnpcb.org/esv/search/?passage=Proverbs+3%3A11-12

Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery trial when it comes upon you to test you, as though something strange were happening to you. But rejoice insofar as you share Christ's sufferings, that you may also rejoice and be glad when his glory is revealed.
