Blessings of Righteousness

“…the time is coming,”

says the LORD,

“when I will raise up a righteous descendant

from King David’s line.

He will be a King who rules with wisdom.

He will do what is just and right throughout the land.

And this will be his name:

‘The LORD Is Our Righteousness.’”…

Jeremiah 23:5-6

(St. Mary Magdalene Church, on the Mount of Olives, Jerusalem)

Blessings of Preservation

 

…God made the earth by his power,

and he preserves it by his wisdom.

With his own understanding

he stretched out the heavens.

When he speaks in the thunder,

the heavens roar with rain.

He causes the clouds to rise over the earth.

He sends the lightning with the rain

and releases the wind from his storehouses.

Jeremiah 10:12-13
