    Ephesians 6:16 | Shield of Faith

    In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one;

    Matthew 6:19-21 | Treasure in Heaven

    “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust[a] destroy and where thieves break in and steal, 20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

    Acts 20:35 | Better to Give

    ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’
