My soul waits.

In God, I put my trust.
I will not be afraid.

What can man do to me? - I heard every created thing which is in heaven, on the earth, under the earth, on the sea, and everything in them, saying, “To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be the blessing, the honor, the glory, and the dominion, forever and ever! Amen!”

Maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed. - When I said, “My foot is slipping!”
Your loving kindness, Yahweh, held me up. - Cause me to hear your loving kindness in the morning,
for I trust in you.
Cause me to know the way in which I should walk,
for I lift up my soul to you. - But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you won’t fulfill the lust of the flesh.

for my expectation is from him. - For I command you today to love Yahweh your God, to walk in his ways and to keep his commandments, his statutes, and his ordinances, that you may live and multiply, and that Yahweh your God may bless you in the land where you go in to possess it.

because his mercies don’t fail.
They are new every morning.
Great is your faithfulness. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you,
and through the rivers, they will not overflow you.
When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned,
and flame will not scorch you.Next verse!With image
