Isaiah 8:13
Do not fear anything except the Lord Almighty. He alone is the Holy One. If you fear Him, you need fear nothing
else. He will keep you safe.

We sometimes simplify our faith and look at it only in terms of rules
and tradition, emphasizing it as a religion but not emphasizing the
relationships. David Smith shared these passages with me and it shows
how Christ interacted with all types of people, even those that were
considered culturally and religiously unfit to mingle with.
Jesus talked with...
A despised tax collector................................Matthew 9:9
An insane hermit..........................................Mark 5:15

Psalm 127
A song for the ascent to Jerusalem. A psalm of Solomon.
1
Unless the LORD builds a house,
the work of the builders is useless.
Unless the LORD protects a city,
guarding it with sentries will do no good.
2
It is useless for you to work so hard
from early morning until late at night,
anxiously working for food to eat;
for God gives rest to his loved ones.
3
Children are a gift from the LORD;
they are a reward from him.
4
Children born to a young man
are like sharp arrows in a warrior's hands.
5
How happy is the man whose quiver is full of them!
He will not be put to shame when he confronts his accusers at the city gates.

Don't you know that when you offer yourselves to someone to obey him as slaves, you are slaves to the one whom you obey--whether you are slaves to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience, which leads to righteousness?
-- Romans 6:16
