Isaiah 51:9-11
9 Awake, awake, put on strength,
O arm of the LORD!
Awake as in the ancient days,
In the generations of old…
10 Are You not the One who dried up the sea,
The waters of the great deep;
That made the depths of the sea a road
For the redeemed to cross over?
11 So the ransomed of the LORD shall return,
And come to Zion with singing,
With everlasting joy on their heads.
They shall obtain joy and gladness;
Sorrow and sighing shall flee away.
12 “ I, even I, am He who comforts you.

Thank you both for your posts and your comments. I, too, felt drawn yesterday to look for psalms of rejoicing and hope, and beyond.
Question for you. Do you have any memorable childhood pranks? I’m trying to finish a chapter of my Christmas story, and I’m asking all my subscribers for help. Thanks.

I like those verses.
Whether you misunderstood purposely or simply by accident, it was very amusing. I meant stuffed as in messed up, as in insane, or something like that. Ok, I’m going to go write the post now.

Isaiah, particularly the latter half, is one of the most powerful books in the entire Hebrew Bible. What is more, it is a fitting choice for any occasion and perhaps especially so now.
I absolutely love to come to your sight! Immediately I am surrounded by the Word along with songs that are really prayers to our Savior! Keep being an encouragement, my generation needs it! Thank you!
