But I have trusted in Your mercy; My heart shall rejoice in Your salvation. I will sing to the LORD, because He has dealt bountifully with me... (Psalm 13:5)



Those who wish me ill without a cause, are more than the hairs of my head... (Psalm 69:4)


 

Then we will no longer be infants, tossed about by the waves and carried around by every wind of teaching and by the craftiness of men in their deceitful schemes.. (Ephesians 4:14)



Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever... (Hebrews 13:8)


 

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms (Ephesians 1:3)


 

...for I bear on my body the marks of Jesus... Are they servants of Christ? (I speak as a fool) I am more; in labours more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequent, in deaths often... Five times I received the forty lashes minus one. Three times I was beaten with rods, once I was stoned, three times I was shipwrecked. Once I spent a whole night and a day adrift at sea. On frequent journeys, in danger from rivers, danger from bandits, danger from my own people, danger from Gentiles, danger in the city, danger in the wilderness, danger at sea, danger from false brothers who claim to be believers; in toil and hardship, through many a sleepless night, in hunger and thirst, often without food, in cold and exposure. Apart from these external trials, I face daily the pressure of my concern for all the churches. Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is led into sin, and I do not burn with grief? If I must boast, I will boast of the things that show my weakness. The God and Father of the Lord Jesus, he who is blessed forever, knows that I am not lying... (Galatians 6:17; 2 Corinthians 11:23-31)

If you rejoice in your brother's fall, you have not known Christ yet..


 

When I found Him whom my soul loves... I held on to Him and would not let Him go... (Song of Solomon 3:4)


 

Many men have done well, but You excel them all...

أحبك يا رب فى خلوتى - البابا شنودة


 

احبك يارب في خلوتي
تناجي فؤادي بعمق الكلم
احبك يا رب في توبتي ووقت البكاء ووقت الندم
احبك يارب وقت الرخاء احبك يا رب وقت العدم
احبك والقصر يُبني لأجلي وأيضًا إذا ما هوى وانهدم
أحبك قلبًا يُضمِّد جُرحي و أفرح بالجرحِ حين التأم
أُحبك روحًا يرفرف حولي يفيض عليَّ بأسمى النِّعَم

As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us... (Psalm 103:12)

قلبي يتهلل

Many are the troubles of the righteous man, but from them all The Lord delivers him... (Psalm 34:19)

 


سأدنو منك


 

سأدنو منك


 

"Lord, I am not worthy to have You come under my roof, but only say a word and my soul will be healed..."


 

لأنك حبيبي - يسوع الملك


 

He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor punished us according to our iniquities. For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is His love for those who fear Him; as far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us. As a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear Him... (Psalm 103:10-13)

 


Come to Me all ye who are weary and heavy laden and I shall give you rest... (Matthew 11:28)

It is Love alone that gives worth to all things...

 


Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonour others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongdoings. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails... (1 Corinthians 13:4-8)



يارب قد جعلتك


 

Let nothing disturb you. Let nothing dismay you. All things are passing away. God never changes. Patience obtains all things. Whoever has God lacks nothing, God alone suffices... (St. Teresa of Avila)



If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, take up his cross and follow Me. For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it... (Matthew 16:24-25)


 

حياة من غير خوف


 

إنى أحب الرب لا لأربح النعيم


                                                   إنى أحب الرب لا لأربح النعيم

ولا لكى أنجو من العذاب في الجحيم
لكن أحبه لأن لي حبه يحلو
وهو الذى من فضله أحبنى قبلوه

ذاك الذى من أجلنا أهين كالعبد
واحتمل الصليب و الهجوع في اللحد
وهو غني عاش في دنياه كالفقير
من أجل أعداء فهل لذاك من نظير

أبعد ذا أعبد من أزال أوزارى
لطمع في جنة أو خوف من نار
كلا وإنما كما أحبني ربى
وقد سمت صفاته يحبه قلبى

I am The way, The truth and The life. No one comes to the Father except through Me... (John 14:6)

 


رفعت عينى


 

He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty... (Psalm 91:1)


Psalm 91:
 He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High

Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress;

My God, in Him I will trust.”

Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler
And from the perilous pestilence.
He shall cover you with His feathers,
And under His wings you shall take refuge;
His truth shall be your shield and buckler.
You shall not be afraid of the terror by night,
Nor of the arrow that flies by day,
Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness,
Nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.

A thousand may fall at your side,
And ten thousand at your right hand;
But it shall not come near you.
Only with your eyes shall you look,
And see the reward of the wicked.

Because you have made the Lordwho is my refuge,
Even the Most High, your dwelling place,
No evil shall befall you,
Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling;
For He shall give His angels charge over you,
To keep you in all your ways.
In their hands they shall bear you up,
Lest you dash your foot against a stone.
You shall tread upon the lion and the cobra,
The young lion and the serpent you shall trample underfoot.

“Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him;
I will set him on high, because he has known My name.
He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him;
will be with him in trouble;
I will deliver him and honour him.
With long life I will satisfy him,
And show him My salvation.”


هوذا ما أحسن وما أجمل أن يسكن الإخوة معا - (مز 133: 1)

 


مزمور ٤١ | ارحمني يا رب فإني ضعيف


 

Greater love has no one than this, that He lay down His life for His friends... (John 15:13)

 


أخبرني يا من تحبه نفسي - أين ترعى - أين تربض عند الظهيرة - لماذا أنا أكون كمقنعة عند قطعان أصحابك

 

He who has began a good work in you, will finish it... (Philippians 1:6)
