O God, why should our hearts be troubled,
if we believe in you?
We have tasted your goodness, how your
steadfast love endures.
You have remembered us in our low estate,
rescued us from our foes.
For every living creature you have
provided food. No one can block
the work of your hand. Teach us to be as innocent before you
as newborn infants, receptive and eager
to receive your pure,
spiritual milk, that we may grow into
your salvation.
Surely, O God, your steadfast love
endures forever.

It is he who remembered us in our low estate,
for his
steadfast love endures forever;
and rescued us from our foes,

steadfast love endures forever;
who gives food to all flesh,
for his
steadfast love endures forever.
Isa. 43:13
I am God, and also henceforth I am He;
there is no
one who can deliver from my hand;
I work and who
can hinder it?

Like newborn infants, long for the pure, spiritual milk, so
that by it you may grow into salvation—if indeed you have tasted that the Lord
is good.

hearts be troubled. Believe in God,
believe also in me. … ”
[Jesus to the eleven disciples]
