The short ones. Wait, I am not talking about people who are not very tall. Not even the signs on the road or the height of some buildings or any thing else that is considered short. That is not what I am talking about.
It is those verses in the Bible that are short but pack a powerful word for us. Today I share some of those short verses with hopes that these will encourage each of us.
John 11:35 NLT
Then Jesus wept
1 Thessalonians 5:16 NLT
Always be joyful.
1 Thessalonians 5:17 NLT
Never stop praying.
Romans 12:18 NLT
Do all that you can to live in peace with everyone.
Psalm 31:24 NLT
So be strong and courageous, all you who put your hope in the Lord!
Luke 1:37 NLT
For the word of God will never fail.
1 John 4:8 NLT
But anyone who does not love does not know God, for God is love.
That is not an exhaustive list, but each of these verses have a story. In context they share strength about our faith and walk with God.
Jesus wept because of His hurting friends. We should have joy and pray all the time. Peace and courage are important to us. It is true that we can trust God’s word and hold on to His love.
Just short verses today that will help us do deeper in our connection to God!
