My Mood: Points: 7,986.18 Bank: 0.00 Total Points: 7,986.18 | Looking for a Verse My DH is graduating from grad school and I would like to engrave a watch for him. There is not much room so I thought I bible verse would be best. I had wanted to say, "With God, all things are possible". Is there a verse to that effect? Or maybe you know of something else that may be inspirational? Looking forward to your suggestions!!!

My Mood: Points: 7,986.18 Bank: 0.00 Total Points: 7,986.18 | Guess I should clarify that I am looking for the actual "book, chapter, verse". I am only going to have room to put the name of the book, and the chapter and verse numbers. I can only engrave on the perimiter of the back of the watch. The back center of the watch has a piece of glass so you can see the inner workings of the watch. Not my idea. This is the watch he wanted. Just not much room to engrave.
Nikki - do you happen to know the book, chapter, and verse of any of those?

For I know the plans i have for you said the Lord, Plans to give you hope and a future. Jer 29:11 | I don't know where the second one is. http://www.biblegateway.com/keyword/ is a pretty cool tool, where you can plug in key words of things and find verses that contain them.

You can see what they have on items and then take the verse to use~

My Mood: Points: 2,134.61 Bank: 0.00 Total Points: 2,134.61 | Sorry....i just checked my email and i see someone already answered your question on the actual verse.... Thanks !!
I have a frame on my desk at work with the "those who hope in me will not be disappointed" , I am mad at myself because i cant remember what book its in, i thought i knew and i looked...and i was wrong...
I will let ya know monday on that, and if i have anyothers that come to mind, i will let you know.
BUT i agree with framin, with graduation time coming up the family christian bookstore or Lifeway christian book stores has LOTS of stuff with scripture on it pertaining to this time in someones life....
SORRY I DIDNT UNDERSTAND YOUR ? THE FIRST TIME ROUND!

I found these verses that sound almost like what you want.
Matthew 19:26 (New International Version)
Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible."
Mark 10:27
Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God." |

Joshua 1:7 (New International Version)
7 Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go.
1 Timothy 5:8 (New International Version)
8 If anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for his immediate family, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
1 Thessalonians 1:3 (New International Version)
3 We continually remember before our God and Father your work produced by faith, your labor prompted by love, and your endurance inspired by hope in our Lord Jesus Christ.
Proverbs 31:10-30 (New International Version)
10 [a] A wife of noble character who can find?
She is worth far more than rubies.
11 Her husband has full confidence in her
and lacks nothing of value.
12 She brings him good, not harm,
all the days of her life.
13 She selects wool and flax
and works with eager hands.
14 She is like the merchant ships,
bringing her food from afar.
15 She gets up while it is still dark;
she provides food for her family
and portions for her servant girls.
16 She considers a field and buys it;
out of her earnings she plants a vineyard.
17 She sets about her work vigorously;
her arms are strong for her tasks.
18 She sees that her trading is profitable,
and her lamp does not go out at night.
19 In her hand she holds the distaff
and grasps the spindle with her fingers.
20 She opens her arms to the poor
and extends her hands to the needy.
21 When it snows, she has no fear for her household;
for all of them are clothed in scarlet.
22 She makes coverings for her bed;
she is clothed in fine linen and purple.
23 Her husband is respected at the city gate,
where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.
24 She makes linen garments and sells them,
and supplies the merchants with sashes.
25 She is clothed with strength and dignity;
she can laugh at the days to come.
26 She speaks with wisdom,
and faithful instruction is on her tongue.
27 She watches over the affairs of her household
and does not eat the bread of idleness.
28 Her children arise and call her blessed;
her husband also, and he praises her:
29 "Many women do noble things,
but you surpass them all."
30 Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting;
but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.

My Mood: Points: 22,434.21 Bank: 284.07 Total Points: 22,718.28 | Thanks for posting the BibleGateway. We're English Civil War re-enactors - parliamentarians (the side who executed the king) and have been trying to find a passage we had on our standard (flag) years ago, *Gather yourselves together that ye may eat the flesh of kings* and I couldn't find it for some reason. Found it in a second with that site! We needed it for a discussion on a forum but it's 28 years since we painted that standard and couldn't remember the passage to quote it! We're all atheists/pagans playing fundamentalist christians - so no-one had a clue how to find it. I would have found it quoted in Milton originally, probably, but re-reading the entire prose works of Milton would have been a life's work! Ta for that link you just made our day!
