Paul
“No, dear brothers and sisters, I have not achieved it, but I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead,
Paul
I press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us.”
(Philippians 3:13–14, NLT)
David
“Then King David was told, “The LORD has blessed Obed-edom’s household and everything he has because of the Ark of God.”
David
So David went there and brought the Ark of God from the house of Obed-edom to the City of David with a great celebration.
David
After the men who were carrying the Ark of the LORD had gone six steps, David sacrificed a bull and a fattened calf.
David
So David and all the people of Israel brought up the Ark of the LORD with shouts of joy and the blowing of rams’ horns.
David
But as the Ark of the LORD entered the City of David, Michal, the daughter of Saul, looked down from her window.
David
When she saw King David leaping and dancing before the LORD, she was filled with contempt for him.
David
They brought the Ark of the LORD and set it in its place inside the special tent David had prepared for it. And David sacrificed burnt offerings and peace offerings to the LORD.
David
When he had finished his sacrifices, David blessed the people in the name of the LORD of Heaven’s Armies.
David
Then he gave to every Israelite man and woman in the crowd a loaf of bread, a cake of dates, and a cake of raisins. Then all the people returned to their homes.” (2 Samuel 6:12–19, NLT)

Your people will be my people, and your God will be my God. Wherever you die, I will die, and there I will be buried.
Ruth
May the LORD punish me severely if I allow anything but death to separate us!” When Naomi saw that Ruth was determined to go with her, she said nothing more.” (Ruth 1:16–18, NLT)

James
“If you claim to be religious but don’t control your tongue, you are fooling yourself, and your religion is worthless.
