Hey all,
FIRST and FOREMOST, I want to add my prayers to all those here that have asked for them and need them either for themselves, family, loved ones and friends....or whomever. I KNOW prayers work and they are of great comfort for those that are seeking them.
I am putting together a little booklet type thing that I am writing down some prayers and verses I have read and heard over the years. Nothing big or special, just something I can slip in my jacket pocket and take with me when I need them.
I would like to have some prayers or verses that you all have found especially comforting over the years whether they be for healing, loss, renewed faith, financial hard times, you name it. We ALL need prayers and verses at many times in our lives. Seems like I need them more and more lately.
I've seen bows adorned with citations from the Bible and such and even prayers themselves. They don't have to be hunting related at all. I'm just giving that as an example.
Please feel free to add whatever verse(s) that have helped you through really hard times of WHATEVER circumstance.
You know sometimes you just don't know where to turn anymore. Feeling like that a lot lately. So if you have any verses, prayers, sayings or words of wisdom you feel comfortable adding, I sure would appreciate it.
Thank you all kindly for your time and help.

Isaiah 53:4-5
Yet it was our sicknesses he carried; it was our pains that weighed him down. And we thought his troubles were a punishment from God, a punishment for his own sins! But, he was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins. He was beaten so we could be whole. He was whipped so we could be healed.

Jeremiah 1:12
Then the Lord said to me, “You have seen well, for I am ready to perform my Word.” (NKJV)

Matthew 21:21-22
So Jesus answered and said to them, "Assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but also if you say to this mountain, 'Be removed and be cast into the sea,' it will be done. “And whatever things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive."

Romans 8:11
The Spirit of God, who raised Jesus from the dead, lives in you. And just as God raised Christ Jesus from the dead, he will give life your mortal bodies by this same Spirit living within you.

Galatians 3:13-14
But Christ has rescued us from the curse pronounced by the law. When he was hung on the cross, he took upon himself the curse for our wrongdoing. For it is written in the Scriptures, “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.” Through Christ Jesus, God has blessed the Gentiles with the same blessing he promised to Abraham, so that we who are believers might receive the promised Holy Spirit through faith.

A verse that has helped me through life, and also keeps me grounded in who I really am since receiving Christ as my savior and Lord.
Galatians 2:20 "I have been crucified with Christ, it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me, and the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God who loves me and gave His life for me."
