Matthew 7:3 - "... why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?"
I have many favourites, but I especially like this one because it so aptly addresses the all-too-human trait of judging and condemning other people for whatever we perceive they have done wrong without ever spending any time wondering about our own possibly greater mistakes. It is a clear challenge to fix ourselves first.
Note: a "mote" (other's faults) is like a speck of dust, while a "beam" (our faults) by comparison is the size of a log.

"I can do all things through Him who strengthens me." Philippians 4:13.
I say it to myself all the time and I have accomplish many things because I believe in what this verse says. I do not think I will have another favorite verse ever. Even if I live until I am one hundred years old.
