I hope we grow where we are planted - even unexpected setbacks can work for our benefit.
(Jeremiah 29:7 KJV) And seek the peace of the city whither I have caused you to be carried away captives, and pray unto the Lord for it: for in the peace thereof shall ye have peace.

I'd like to know which bible verses were popular on twitter on Valentine's Day - 2013. I've added elasticsearch support to my project habakkuk to store religious tweets for analysis. It turns out to be a collection of love scriptures. Very Nice!
To get the data for Valentines day 2013, I execute the following
$ python bible_facet.py -s 2013-02-14 -e 2013-02-15
It shows the raw query json for the Elasticsearch Query DSL. Below that it shows the top 10 bible references. Its basically just a faceted search on the bibleverse field.

I hope we continue to build upon our talents, we never know how far they can take us.
(1 Timothy 4:14 NIV) Do not neglect your gift, which was given you through prophecy when the body of elders laid their hands on you.
We are like tea bags, we don't know what we're capable of until we get into hot water.
(Daniel 3:26, 27 NIV) "Nebuchadnezzar then approached the opening of the blazing furnace and shouted, “Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, servants of the Most High God, come out! Come here!” So Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego came out of the fire, and the satraps, prefects, governors and royal advisers crowded around them. They saw that the fire had not harmed their bodies, nor was a hair of their heads singed; their robes were not scorched, and there was no smell of fire on them."
Some say "no pain, to gain". We can also say "no love, no gain"
1 Corinthians 13:3 NIV "If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing."
How much we love is more important than how much we know.
1 Corinthians 13:2 NIV "If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing."
A life without love is like "The Gong Show" with no Show.
1 Corinthians 13:1 (NIV) If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.
Being perfect may not always be possible, but there's always room to get better.
2 Peter 1:5-7(NIV) - 5 For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; 6 and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; 7 and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love.
Like Elvis said "A little less conversation, a little more action"
1 John 3:18 (NIV) Let us not love with words and tongue but with actions and in truth.
