Matthew 10:37-39 ESV: [37] Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me, and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. [38] And whoever does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me. [39] Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.

 Psalm 16:11 ESV: [11] You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
