“God’s Spirit hovers over the dark water preparing to create worlds. The child we wait for grows in the deep darkness of the womb.”What is giving you hope right now?//Psalm 146:5-10Happy are those whose help is the God of Jacob,whose hope is in the Lord their God,who made heaven and earth,the sea, and all that is in them;who keeps faith forever;who executes justice for the oppressed;who gives food to the hungry.The Lord sets the prisoners free;the Lord opens the eyes of the blind.The Lord lifts up those who are bowed down;the Lord loves the righteous.The Lord watches over the strangers;he upholds the orphan and the widow,but the way of the wicked he brings to ruin.The Lord will reign forever,your God, O Zion, for all generations.Praise the Lord!//This episode was written and recorded by Debie Thomas.
