Fight for what matters

Nehemiah 4:14 (NIV84)
After I looked things over, I stood up and said to the nobles, the officials and the rest of the people, “Don't be afraid of them. Remember the Lord, who is great and awesome, and fight for your brothers, your sons and your daughters, your wives and your homes.”

Let it go

Hebrews 12:1 (NIV84)
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.

Better 1 handful

Luke 12:15 (NIV84)
Then he said to them, “Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; a man's life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.”

Better 1 handful

Ecclesiastes 4:6 (NIV84)
Better one handful with tranquillity than two handfuls with toil and chasing after the wind.

Hope

Romans 13:11-14 (NKJV)
And do this, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep; for now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed.

Hope

Lamentations 3:20 (NKJV)
My soul still remembers And sinks within me.

Psalm 84:10

For a day in Your courts is better than a thousand. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God Than dwell in the tents of wickedness.
