The idols of the nations are
silver
and gold; it is easy to
worship them
because we know what they can
buy.
But we will worship Jesus, for
he was
tested as we are tested, yet
without sin.
The dove flew away from
Noah's hand,
and it did not return to him
any more.
He did not know where it had
gone,
but he trusted the flood had
ended.
The wind blows where it
chooses,
and we hear the sound of it;
but we
do not know where it comes
from or
where it goes. So it is with your Spirit.
