A few of these verses were referred to in our meetings today.
We thought it was powerful to read them all together.
Matthew 9:2 "And, behold, they brought to [Christ] a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee."
Matthew 14: 27 "But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid."
John 16:33 "These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world."
Acts 23:11 (of Paul in prison) "And the night following the Lord stood by him, and said, Be of good cheer, Paul."
3 Nephi 1:13 "Lift up your head and be of good cheer; for behold, the time is at hand, and on this night shall the sign be given, and on the morrow come I into the world, to show unto the world that I will fulfil all that which I have caused to be spoken by the mouth of my holy prophets."
D&C 61:36 "And now, verily I say unto you, and what I say unto one I say unto all, be of good cheer, little children; for I am in your midst, and I have not forsaken you"
D&C 68: 6 Wherefore, be of good cheer, and do not fear, for I the Lord am with you, and will stand by you; and ye shall bear record of me, even Jesus Christ, that I am the Son of the living God, that I was, that I am, and that I am to come.
D&C 78: 18 "And ye cannot bear all things now; nevertheless, be of good cheer, for I will lead you along."

Thanks Lori--the scriptures are so profound--so perfect. I've read them a million times separate, but the passages you presented (on good cheer) together they are so powerful. Love and pray for you! Marci
Thank you Lori... I loved reading those all together like that. We have "been of good cheer" here at the Crane house this weekend after being exceedingly blessed.
love you!
needing to remember this in my life...love you friends.
Thank you a million times Lori! I am having a hard time having a good attitude right now and all these verses just spoke to my heart. I know the Lord wants me to be of good cheer and that He loves me. Thanks for taking the time to write these verses down!
Being of "Good Cheer" is sometimes easier to verbalize than to DO. But, as we listen to the words of the Lord....we are hopefully moved to positive Action !
(Your birth was truly a time of Good Cheer in our lives)
