| Daughter,
Let your joy be new every morning. When you rise early sing of lovingkindness and rehearse My former faithfulness. Declare to the heavens and the earth the goodness of the Lord until the heavens open and the rain begins to fall on the famine ravished land. Put your face between your legs, like Elijah, then look toward the sea. Though it may at first appear as only a small cloud the size of a man's hand, go up again and again. Go up seven times! Until the heavens can contain their fullness no longer, and the drenching rains gain their release. Then you will outrun the chariots of kings--the kings of earth. In
the evening declare My faithfulness, "Call on Me in sorrows
day--I will relieve;--you thank." (Psalm
50 14-15) |
