That is my wife's confirmation verse. I posted mine earlier (Matthew 6:33 - Seek ye first...).


The scripture we had read at our wedding was both of our confirmation verses, and then 1 Corinthians 13.

The scripture we had read at our wedding was both of our confirmation verses, and then 1 Corinthians 13.

The most moving scripture I've ever heard read at a wedding was at my brother's, and it was Ruth 1:16-17:


16 But Ruth replied, "Don't urge me to leave you or to turn back from you. Where you go I will go, and where you stay I will stay. Your people will be my people and your God my God. 17 Where you die I will die, and there I will be buried. May the LORD deal with me, be it ever so severely, if anything but death separates you and me."

 

[electra]

Matt. 19:26

"with man, this is impossible ... but with God, all things are possible"

I've heard that a few weddings - it is a very good verse indeed!

"Let your life be free from the love of money but be content with what you have, for he has said I will never forsake you or abandon you." Hebrews 13:5

"A good person out of the store of goodness in his heart produces good, but an evil person out of a store of evil produces evil; for from the fullness of the heart the mouth speaks." Luke 6:45

Pray for Obama: Psalm 109:8

I see what you did there.

In three days, I'll have to add Luke 20:25 to my list.

But begrudgingly so. Caesar demands too much.

My favorite verse is John 1:4.

In him was life and the life was the light of men.

It kind of sums up Christ. In him we have life. He is the light that we follow, that guides us.

 

[darinb]

Acts 2:38
Ephesians 4:5
James 1:27
My favorite chapter is Mathew 10 and my overall favorite book is between James and Isiah.

 

[indytechnerd]

I have a few...

One that has always rung with me: Matthew 4:19 (NIV)
"Come, follow me," Jesus said, "and I will make you fishers of men."

Hanging on our wall, spoken at our wedding: 1 Corinthians 13:13 (NIV)
"And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love."

My EDS (Every Day Scripture): Proverbs 22:3 (NIV)
"A prudent man sees danger and takes refuge, but the simple keep going and suffer for it."

 

[TheCapulet]

John 21:25
Jesus also did many other things. If they were all written down, I suppose the whole world could not contain the books that would be written.

 

[Mike_Indy]

Yes, to John 3:16 as God's expression of His love for us. But, I must also add this one...

Genesis 2:22


22 Then the rib which the LORD God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man.

 

[LCPer]

I have always loved Hebrews 11:1 (NIV)
Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.

It says it all.

In 1984 I met my pastor of 9 yrs. for the first time..I was going through
a divorce an hard times. He was so different from any other pastor I have
ever met, even till this day...Before I left his house, I knew this preacher
had a walk with the Lord...He told me to go home an read Paslm 37. That
it was for me. Its amazing how through the years it has guided me an engrafted
itself to me. It continues to be my favorite, an probably always will be.

John 3:16 and Psalms 144:1.
Not biblical, but is theorized to be older than the bible
Havamal 38(sayings of the High One <Odin>)
Let a man never stir on his road a step
without his weapons of war;
for unsure is the knowing when need shall arise
of a spear on the way without

For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison.

Oh yes, that's a good one. I preached a sermon on 'light afflictions' recently.
