Find the Verse

Hidden among the mixed up letters below is a verse from the Bible.  If you are a super sleuth, have a go at it without looking up the reference first.  The easier way to do it is first read the Scripture so you know exactly what words you are seeking.  All the words are in a continuous, connected stream but may run in any direction, down, up, left, or right, and may change direction in the middle of a word.
 

Note:  this is a difficult type puzzle to solve, not recommended for young children.
