My roomie's verses - Hopkins
2 Corinthians 4:8-13
8We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; 9persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. 10We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. 11For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus' sake, so that his life may be revealed in our mortal body. 12So then, death is at work in us, but life is at work in you.
2 Corinthians 4:14-17
14because we know that the one who raised the Lord Jesus from the dead will also raise us with Jesus and present us with you in his presence. 15All this is for your benefit, so that the grace that is reaching more and more people may cause thanksgiving to overflow to the glory of God.
16Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. 17For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.
***I'm liking Hopkins, Halstead, and my roomies. Hmn, I'm loving God. I opened the package from God and I'm liking; I'm liking that even though I didn't know what was in there and scared to open it, it turned out to be real good. I'm glad I can trust God. I'm liking the services provided. And I'm waiting on God for what is yet to come. I was nervous; but I believe, it's coming, and I'm meant for it. Loving Hopkins, and loved my walk to Loyola and College de Notre Dame. Liking; the state I am in. Loving the feeling I have for the Supreme God. Balanced, the reward I gained for trusting God in my circumstances. Peace, a perfect gift for honoring God and accepting his ways. Joy, a part of belonging to God. Gratitude, the acknowledgment of blessings that supersedes fears. Healed, freedom from evils' influence and walking heavenward with all power. Jesus, the Savior of who truly saves and serves his unworthy friends; thick or thin***
