Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what he has done has been done through God.

- John 3:20-21

The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.

— 1 Corinthians 2:14 (NIV

‎"One thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and
straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the
prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus"--
Philippians 3:13-14

"God is not a man, that he should lie, nor a son of man, that he should
change his mind. Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and
not fulfill?" – Numbers 23:19

‎"Seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

— Matthew 6:33 (NIV)"
