For To Us

For the Lord is good and his love endures forever;
his faithfulness continues through all generations.
– Psalms 100:5

Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign:
The Virgin will be with child and give birth to
a son, and will call him Immanuel.

Isaiah 7:14

For to us a child is born,
    to us a son is given,
    and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
    Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
    Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Isaiah 9:6


Thoughts To Man

 

He who forms the mountains, creates the wind, and reveals
his thoughts to man, he who turns dawn to darkness, and
treads the high places of the earth—

the Lord God Almighty
is his name.

Amos 4:13


Rend Your Heart

Rend your heart and not your garments.

Return to the Lord your God, for he is
gracious and compassionate,
slow to anger and abounding in love,
and he relents from sending calamity.

Joel 2:13


Who Is Wise

Who is wise? He will realize these things.

Who is discerning? He will understand them.

 

The ways of the Lord are right; the righteous
walk in them,

but the rebellious stumble in
them.
Hosea 14:9


I Have Hope

See, O Lord, how distressed I am!
I am in torment within, and in my heart I am
disturbed, for I have been most rebellious.
Lamentations 1:20a

I remember my affliction and my wandering,
the bitterness and the gall. I well remember
them, and my soul is downcast within me.
Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have
hope:

Because of the Lord’s great love we
are not consumed, for his compassion’s never
fail.
Lamentations 3:19-22


Sings Through His Tears

 

“Any man can sing by day; but only he whose heart
has been tuned by the gracious hand of Jehovah can
sing in the darkness. The things of earth may
satisfy for the hours of prosperity; but only the
peace of God can give gladness in the darkness of
adversity.

God gives joy in sorrow; and when the
sad one sings through his tears, then the Lord comes
out to him with new and more tender assurances, so that
by his very hymn he is made more gladsome. That which is born
of trust rises in rapture.” – Wm. M. Taylor.
