The one I will share choose to share is...
Philippians 4: 4-9
"Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable -- if anything is excellent or praiseworthy think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you." NIV

Psalm 91
1 He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
2 I will say of the LORD, "He is my refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust."
3 Surely he will save you from the fowler's snare
and from the deadly pestilence.
4 He will cover you with his feathers,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.
5 You will not fear the terror of night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,
6 nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness,
nor the plague that destroys at midday.
7 A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
8 You will only observe with your eyes
and see the punishment of the wicked.
9 If you make the Most High your dwelling�
even the LORD, who is my refuge-
10 then no harm will befall you,
no disaster will come near your tent.
11 For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways;
12 they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.
13 You will tread upon the lion and the cobra;
you will trample the great lion and the serpent.
14 "Because he loves me," says the LORD, "I will rescue him;
I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.
15 He will call upon me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble,
I will deliver him and honor him.
16 With long life will I satisfy him
and show him my salvation."

Hosea 11:8 �Oh, how can I give you up, Israel?
How can I let you go?
How can I destroy you like Admah
or demolish you like Zeboiim?
My heart is torn within me,
and my compassion overflows.
Song of Solomon 8:6,7 Place me like a seal over your heart, like a seal on your arm. For love is as strong as death, its jealousy[a] as enduring as the grave.[b] Love flashes like fire, the brightest kind of flame. Many waters cannot quench love, nor can rivers drown it. If a man tried to buy love with all his wealth, his offer would be utterly scorned.
John 15: 13-15 13 There is no greater love than to lay down one�s life for one�s friends. 14 You are my friends if you do what I command. 15 I no longer call you slaves, because a master doesn�t confide in his slaves. Now you are my friends, since I have told you everything the Father told me.

When I was a Catholic, my only memorized verse was John 3:16 and it says:
verse 16: "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whoever believes in Him will not perish but have an everlasting life.":glow::glow::laugh:
But when I became Born Again Christian and became a member of the Baptist Church since 1999, I began reading the entire Holy Bible and continue reading as already a part of my life daily. And so that John 3:16 is still my favorite verse but I would like to add more to that. Now, from John 3:16 up to verse 21.
verse 17: For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world but to save the world through Him.
verse18: Whoever believes in Him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son.
verse 19: This is the verdict: Light has come into the world but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil.
verse 20: Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed.
verse 21: But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may seen plainly that what he has done has been done through God.
Then I will also include this Proverbs 3:5-6 that I almost think daily when problems arise...
Proverbs 3:5-6...
verse 5: Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding.
verse 6: In all your ways, acknowledge Him and He shall direct your path.
