This people I have formed for myself; they shall shew forth my praise. Isaiah 43:14-21 2) Our LORD is our shelter because He is our Rock in who we hide in the time of Storm.

Isaiah 32:2 3) But those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint. Isaiah 40:31 4) Your word is a lamp to my feet And a lamp to my path. Psalm 119:105 5) Your word have I hidden in my heart, That I might not sin against you.
