Isaiah 35&40

Thank you, Father, you have shown me the way. It is a high way, a road. It is a highway to holiness. It is faith in Jesus as your Messiah, and it is discipline to study his words and to seek his indwelling spirit.

The unsaved do not follow this way, but I walk on it. Even when I make poor choices, I repent, and I am still on the highway. No lions or ravenous beasts can reach me here.

I am redeemed and ransomed. I walk this highway singing with everlasting joy and gladness. Sorrow and sighing have fled away from this highway.

You are the way, Lord Jesus. You have made straight a highway for me to God. You have made the crooked places straight and the rough places smooth. You have revealed the glory of God to all who are chosen, and on your appointed day, all flesh will see your glory.

I lift up my voice and sing. I am not afraid. You, Lord Jesus, have come with a strong hand. You have become my Lord, and you rule over me. I am rewarded with your salvation, with peace and hope and freedom. You feed me like a shepherd. You gather me into your arms, and you carry me!
