Word... Inspiration...

What book? Want to find some inspiration in your life? Give this a try.

1. Pick a word... Here are a few suggestions... Jesus, salvation, saved, believe, holy, Hell, Heaven, path... You get the idea...

2. Go to: http://www.biblegateway.com/keyword/

3. Type your word in the search bar just below where it says "Enter word(s)" I'm going to type in the word love.

4. Where it says select version, you can select a lot of Bibles to choose from, but choosing the first on the list, the NIV (New International Version) helps for easy accurate reading.

5. Look at your options of where in the Bible you want to look. I'm going to limit my search to the New Testament.

6. Click on Search Keyword or Phrase...

7. Vwalah... Here you have it. Now if something stands out to you, click on the verse and you can select to read verses around it, or even more for context. I'm going to pull out a few of the verses that included the word love.

Luke 10:27
He answered, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’ ; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ ”

John 15:9
“As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love.

John 15:13
Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.

Romans 8:38-39

38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,a]">[a] neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Romans 12:9
[ Love in Action ] Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good.


1 Corinthians 8:3
But whoever loves God is known by God.


1 Corinthians 13:4-7 4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Jude 1:21
keep yourselves in God’s love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life.

These verses are just a small window into God's Word on love. Hope you'll enjoy reading more!
