Bible verses for a friend

[leonie]

A friend of mine had this request:

I need some help fromyou. I am giving a Bible to a non-churched friend of mine who is needing Jesus and is interested, but scared of moving forward. Iwould like to highlight special verses for her.
Could you send me some verses (just the ch/vs is fine) to highlight?

Some of your favorites?

Thank you for your help.

I have a couple, but I thought the beautiful souls on CAF spirituality forum might have some suggestions.
