For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.

Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.

Remain in me, and I will remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me. -- John 15:4 (NIV)

No one lights a lamp and puts it in a place where it will be hidden, or under a bowl. Instead he puts it on its stand, so that those who come in may see the light.

If you bring forth what is within you, what you bring forth will save you. If you do not bring forth what is within you, what you do not bring forth will destroy you.(Gospel of St. Thomas)

Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.
