The Spirit of the Sovreign Lord is on me,
because the Lord has anointed me to preach good news to the poor.
He has sent me to bind up the broken-hearted,
to proclaim freedom for the captives
and release from darkness for the prisoners,
to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor
and the day of vengeance of our God,
to comfort all who mourn,
and provide for those who greive in Zion
- to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes,
the oil of gladness instead of mourning,
and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair.
They will be called oaks of the Lord,
a planting of the Lord for the display of His splendor.
Isaiah 61:1-3

isn't that beautiful? it's almost as beautiful as a perfect piqué arabesque en pointe. hahaha that was for vanessa. ~-^
doubts though. many doubts. if i can't even manage to not hurt those I love, how’m I gonna do all this? By His strength, not mine. Easy enuf to say…
