Verses for Becky...

...2 Days Before My 36th Birthday

Peace

Isaiah 25:1
O Lord, I will honor and praise Your name, for You are my God.  You do such wonderful things! You planned them long ago, and now you have accomplished them.

Isaiah 26:3
You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in You, all whose thoughts are fixed on You.

Isaiah 26:12
Lord, You will grant us peace; all we have accomished is really from You.


Righteousness & Repentance (or the lack thereof)

Isaiah 26:7
But for those who are righteous, the way is not steep and rough.  You are a God who does what is right, and you smooth out the path ahead of them.

Isaiah 26:8
Lord, we show our trust in You by obeying your laws; our heart's desire is to glorify Your name.

Isaiah 26:10
Your kindness to the wicked does not make them do good.  Although others do right, the wicked keep doing wrong and take no notice of teh Lord's majesty.

Isaiah 26:16-18
Lord, in distress we searched for You.  We prayed beneath the burden of Your discipline.  Just as a pregnant woman writhes and cries out as she gives birth, so were we in Your presence, Lord.  We, too, writhe in agony, but nothing comes of our suffering.  We have not given salvation to the earth, nor brought life into the world.
