new things out of nothing

He has made everything beautiful in its time. He also has planted eternity in men’s hearts and minds [a divinely implanted sense of a purpose working through the ages which nothing under the sun but God alone can satisfy]… Ecclesiastes 3:11, AMPC
I know you are with me
I will bless the Lord who guides me; I know the Lord is always with me. No wonder my heart is glad, and I rejoice. Psalm 16:7-9, NLT
rest
For we who have believed do enter that rest… Hebrews 4:3, NKJV
walk in love
And walk in love, [esteeming and delighting in one another] as Christ loved us and gave Himself up for us… Ephesians 5:2, AMPC
