Where the Real News is the Good News

The name of the Lord is a fortified tower;
    the righteous run to it and are safe.

 

I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;
    I will counsel you with my loving eye on you.

Ah, Sovereign Lord, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for you.

 The Lord appeared to us in the past, saying:

“I have loved you with an everlasting love;
    I have drawn you with unfailing kindness.

And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.

Take delight in the Lord,
    and he will give you the desires of your heart.
