I found some more of my favorite Bible passages:
Philippians 1:21 "To live is Christ and to die is gain."
I love how this verse illustrates how when we are alive we are "in Christ" but when we die, as Christians, we gain eternal life in Heaven.
John 6:27 "Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the son of man will give you."
This is such a good reminder to me about how I need to work for eternal life, not just for this world, but for the one to come. I need to feast my body on the Bible, the Word of God, and not focus so much on things of this world that will be gone when I get to Heaven.
John 6:35 "Then Jesus declared, 'I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never go hungry, and he who believes in me will never be thirsty."
This just reinforces John 6:27, and how we need to feed of the Word of the Lord, and we will never be hungry or thirsty, but will be satisfied in the Lord.
John 10:14 "I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me"
This is an excellent reminder to me that God knows each of his sheep(children) and knows us by name, and we in part know him.
John 14:6 "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."
This is a reminder for me, that in order to be saved, we must first accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior.
John 15:5 "I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing."
This verse reminds me that without God, I am nothing, and that I need him in my life.
