okay, a chance for catholics to show they love scripture too.
ur fav verse(s)
 
ISAIAH Chapter 56, verses 1 through 8. I am one of those dry trees, yet look at God’s promise to us Eunuchs:getholy:
 
John 13:34 A new commandment I give unto you: That you love one another, as I have loved you, that you also love one another. 35 By this shall all men know that you are my disciples, if you have love one for another.
 
John 3:16

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.”

An oldie, but a goodie.

Matthew 16:18

“I also say to you that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build My church; and the gates of Hades will not overpower it.”

Ya know, cuz I’m all Catholic…

Peace,
Dante
 
Matthew 18:20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and behold I am with you all days, even to the consummation of the world.

I was thinking about this verse not long ago. It has moved me emotionally. I am not saying its my “favourite” or not, because it would be a bit superficial.
 
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” It needs no citation…
 
Jeremiah 29:13

And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.
 
6 Who being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 7 But emptied Himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men, and in habit found as a man. 8 He humbled himself, becoming obedient unto death, even to the death of the cross. 9 For which cause God also hath exalted him, and hath given him a name which is above all names: 10 That in the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those that are in heaven, on earth, and under the earth: 11 And that every tongue should confess that the Lord Jesus Christ is in the glory of God the Father. Philippians Chapter 2:6-11.

My favorite Chapter and verses.
 
Picking a favorite is tough. I have been reflecting on Matthew Chapter 6 a lot lately. The ending of the chapter always puts a smile on my face.

Matthew 6 30:34

If God so clothes the grass of the field, which grows today and is thrown into the oven tomorrow, will he not much more provide for you, O you of little faith? So do not worry and say, ‘What are we to eat?’ or ‘What are we to drink?’ or ‘What are we to wear?’ All these things the pagans seek. Your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. But seek first the kingdom (of God) and his righteousness, and all these things will be given you besides. Do not worry about tomorrow; tomorrow will take care of itself. Sufficient for a day is its own evil.

I also like the following from the Catechism. 👍

CCC 134 All sacred Scripture is but one book, and this one book is Christ, “because all divine Scripture speaks of Christ, and all divine Scripture is fulfilled in Christ”
 
Jesus said to them, "I am the bread of life; he who comes to me shall not hunger, and he who believes in me shall never thirst. John 6 v 35
 
I believe I’ve said this before, but I love the verse that talks about the Holy Spirit interceding for us with groans that cannot be expressed. Does anyone know where that is in the Bible?🤷
Thanks.
