Jeremiah 17:7-8 (TLB) 7 "But blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord and has made the Lord his hope and confidence. 8 He is like a tree planted along a riverbank, with its roots reaching deep into the water—a tree not bothered by the heat nor worried by long months of drought. Its leaves stay green, and it goes right on producing all its luscious fruit.
John 17:3 (TLB) And this is the way to have eternal life—by knowing you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, the one you sent to earth!
Acts 16:31 (TLB) They replied, "Believe on the Lord Jesus and you will be saved, and your entire household."
Eternal life does not begin with death; it begins with faith. Samuel M. Shoemaker (1893-1963) (Draper's Book of Quotations for the Christian World.)
