Great Encouragement

In my recent scripture studies, I've come across these scriptures that I know will give me continued strength. I love them and will have to display them somewhere to remind me.

2 Timothy 3:12-17 (Paul speaking)

(12) Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution (13) But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived. (14) But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them; (15) And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. (16) All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: (17) That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.

Luke 22:31-32 (The Lord speaking)

(31) And the Lord said, Simon (Bonnie), Simon (Bonnie), behold Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat: (32) But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.
