All the believers were united in heart and mind. And they felt that what they owned was not their own, so they shared everything they had. The apostles testified powerfully to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and God’s great blessing was upon them all. There were no needy people among them, because those who owned land or houses would sell them and bring the money to the apostles to give to those in need. —Acts 4:32-35 (NLT)

The lions may grow weak and hungry,
but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing. —Psalm 34:10 (NIV)

but joy comes with the morning. —Psalm 30:5 (NLT)
