BUT my words (Matthew24:25)

Heaven and earth will disappear,
BUT my words will never disappear.
Matthew 24:25
I encourage you to memorize God's word. So that no matter what you are going through or what may come of this place we call home you have His word with in you. Don't say you can't. I said the same thing for years. I could memorize some of the traditional verses BUT felt I couldn't remember the longer ones. Then when I became a flight attendant and memorized all the boarding and safety announcement and I thought 'oops, I guess I can.".  
 I began memorizing the 1st Chapter of James and  I am almost on to chapter 2.

Listen, I tell you a mystery:
We will not all sleep, BUT we will all be changed

Everyone loves a mystery-
For anyone out there that is skeptical about what happens after we die-
 Here is your answer WE WILL ALL BE CHANGED.
and it will be better then anything here on earth!

BUT one thing I do (Phillippians 3:13)

Brothers and sisters,
I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it.
BUT one thing I do:
Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead,
Philippians 3:13
Far to often we allow our past hurts or hangups to handicap us from a great future.
We must strain (to make a strenuous or unusually great effort:) to see the great things God has planned for our future.

BUT shows favor to the humble (1 Peter 5:5)

In the same way, you who are younger,
submit yourselves to your elders.
All of you, clothe yourselves with humility
toward one another, because,
“God opposes the proud
    BUT shows favor to the humble.
1 Peter 5:5
nuf said.

We can make our plans,
    BUT the Lord determines our steps.

Please Lord don't let me get in your way.

BUT everyone deserted me (2 Timothy 4:16-17)

At my first defense, no one came to my support,
BUT everyone deserted me. May it not be held against them.
But the Lord stood at my side and gave me strength,
so that through me the message might be fully proclaimed and all the Gentiles might hear it.
2 Timothy 4:16-17
This verse has so many gems---- No matter what you are going through- or how lonely you feed God is standing by your side. Those few words 'may it not be held against them'- show the true heart of this believer-

BUT the Spirit Himself (Romans 8:26)

In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness.
We do not know what we ought to pray for,
BUT the Spirit himself intercedes for us
through wordless groans.
Romans 8:26
When you don't know what to pray remember the Spirit goes to the father for you!

BUT as it actually is (1 Thessalonians 2:13)

And we also thank God continually because, when you received the word of God, which you heard from us, you accepted it not as a human word, BUT as it actually is, the word of God, which is indeed at work in you who believe.
1 Thessalonians 2:13
The Bible is the Word of God- Ever word is inspired by Him. Don't just listen to what man has to say about it - read it for your self.
