Psalm 37:3-5 (MSG)
Get insurance with god and do a good deed, settle down and stick to your last. Keep company with god, get in on the best.

Good Story

Hosea 1:1-11 (MSG)
This is God's Message to Hosea son of Beeri. It came to him during the royal reigns of Judah's kings Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah. This was also the time that Jeroboam son of Joash was king over Israel. This Whole Country Has Become a Whorehouse

Love

1 Corinthians 13:4-7 (MSG)
Love never gives up. Love cares more for others than for self. Love doesn't want what it doesn't have. Love doesn't strut, Doesn't have a swelled head,

Good Verse

Proverbs 22:8 (MSG)
Whoever sows sin reaps weeds, and bullying anger sputters into nothing.

Good Verse

2 Corinthians 1:3-11 (MSG)
All praise to the God and Father of our Master, Jesus the Messiah! Father of all mercy! God of all healing counsel! He comes alongside us when we go through hard times, and before you know it, he brings us alongside someone else who is going through hard times so that we can be there for that person just as God was there for us. We have plenty of hard times that come from following the Messiah, but no more so than the good times of his healing comfort—we get a full measure of that, too.

Proverbs 27:1-2 (MSG)
Don't brashly announce what you're going to do tomorrow; you don't know the first thing about tomorrow.

Proverbs 27:6 (MSG)
The wounds from a lover are worth it; kisses from an enemy do you in.

Proverbs 27:9-10 (MSG)
Just as lotions and fragrance give sensual delight, a sweet friendship refreshes the soul.

Proverbs 27:14 (MSG)
If you wake your friend in the early morning by shouting "Rise and shine!" It will sound to him more like a curse than a blessing.

Proverbs 27:17-20 (MSG)
You use steel to sharpen steel, and one friend sharpens another.

Proverbs 27:24 (MSG)

Galatians 5:1, Galatians 5:16-26

Galatians 5:1 (MSG)
Christ has set us free to live a free life. So take your stand! Never again let anyone put a harness of slavery on you.

Galatians 5:16-26 (MSG)
My counsel is this: Live freely, animated and motivated by God's Spirit. Then you won't feed the compulsions of selfishness. For there is a root of sinful self-interest in us that is at odds with a free spirit, just as the free spirit is incompatible with selfishness. These two ways of life are antithetical, so that you cannot live at times one way and at times another way according to how you feel on any given day. Why don't you choose to be led by the Spirit and so escape the erratic compulsions of a law-dominated existence?

Philippians 4:8

Philippians 4:8 (MSG)
Summing it all up, friends, I'd say you'll do best by filling your minds and meditating on things true, noble, reputable, authentic, compelling, gracious—the best, not the worst; the beautiful, not the ugly; things to praise, not things to curse. Put into practice what you learned from me, what you heard and saw and realized. Do that, and God, who makes everything work together, will work you into his most excellent harmonies.

Really cool verses

1 Thessalonians 5:6-11 (MSG)
So let's not sleepwalk through life like those others. Let's keep our eyes open and be smart.

Ephesians 4:17

Ephesians 4:17 (MSG)
And so I insist—and God backs me up on this—that there be no going along with the crowd, the empty-headed, mindless crowd. They've refused for so long to deal with God that they've lost touch not only with God but with reality itself. They can't think straight anymore. Feeling no pain, they let themselves go in sexual obsession, addicted to every sort of perversion.

Philippians 3:10

Philippians 3:10 (MSG)
I gave up all that inferior stuff so I could know Christ personally, experience his resurrection power, be a partner in his suffering, and go all the way with him to death itself. If there was any way to get in on the resurrection from the dead, I wanted to do it.
