I can do all things with Christ who strengthens me. (Phil. 4:13)
My God will fully satisfy all my needs. (Phil. 4:19)
I am the light of the world. (Mt. 5:14)
I let my light shine. (Mt. 5:16)
I am God's beloved child. (Mt. 3:17)
The Spirit intercedes within me in sighs too deep for words. (Rom. 8:26)
In all things in my life, God is working for good. (Rom. 8:28)
