Serve the Lord with gladness! Come into his presence with singing!
Psalm 100:2, ESV

Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord!

Be strong in the Lord.
The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.
Psalm 34:18, ESV

Psalm 91:1-2, ESV

Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him; bless his name! For the Lord is good; his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations.
Psalm 100:4-5, ESV
Daily approach God in prayer, thanking Him that Jesus has made away for us to draw near, because of His sacrifice made in perfect love.
