Ecclesiastes 4 (KJV)

1 So I returned, and considered all the oppressions that are done under the sun: and behold the tears of such as were oppressed, and they had no comforter; and on the side of their oppressors there was power; but they had no comforter.
2 Wherefore I praised the dead which are already dead more than the living which are yet alive.
3 Yea, better is he than both they, which hath not yet been, who hath not seen the evil work that is done under the sun.

4 Again, I considered all travail (agony, stress, struggle, suffering), and every right work, that for this a man is envied  (despised) of his neighbour. This is also vanity (arrogance, self-admiration, narcissism) and vexation (abuse, harassment) of spirit.

5 The fool foldeth his hands together, and eateth his own flesh.
6 Better is an handful with quietness, than both the hands full with travail (agony, stress, struggle, suffering) and vexation  (abuse, harassment) of spirit.

9 Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour.
10 For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up.
11 Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but how can one be warm alone?
12 And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.

13 Better is a poor and a wise child than an old and foolish king, who will no more be admonished (scolded, reprimand, warned, checked, counseled).
14 For out of prison he cometh to reign; whereas also he that is born in his kingdom becometh poor.

Quietness

Ecclesiastes 9 (KJV)

17 The words of wise men are heard in quiet more than the cry of him that ruleth among fools.




Proverbs 17 (KJV)

17 Better is a dry morsel, and quietness therewith, than an house full of sacrifices with strife (fighting, disagreements).

1 Chronicles 22 (KJV)

9 Behold, a son shall be born to thee, who shall be a man of rest; and I will give him rest from all his enemies round about: for his name shall be Solomon, and I will give peace and quietness unto Israel in his days.
10 He shall build an house for my name; and he shall be my son, and I will be his father; and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel for ever.
11 Now, my son, the Lord be with thee; and prosper thou, and build the house of the Lord thy God, as he hath said of thee.

12 Only the Lord give thee wisdom and understanding, and give thee charge concerning Israel, that thou mayest keep the law of the Lord thy God.
13 Then shalt thou prosper, if thou takest heed to fulfil the statutes and judgments which the Lord charged Moses with concerning Israel: be strong, and of good courage; dread not, nor be dismayed (frightened, alarmed).

1 Chronicles 4 (KJV)

40 And they found fat pasture and good, and the land was wide, and quiet, and peaceable; for they of Ham had dwelt there of old.

Feeling Spiritually Zapped, What to Do (Part 2)

Romans 8 (KJV)

31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?
32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?
33 Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth.
34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession (mediation, negotiation, the action of intervening on behalf of another.) for us.

35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation (agony), or distress, or persecution (oppression, mistreatment), or famine, or nakedness, or peril (danger, threat), or sword?
36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

Feeling Spiritually Zapped, What to Do (Part 1)
