The divine exchange

A wonderful passage...

'The spirit of the Lord is upon me, because the Lord has anointed and qualified me... to grant joy to those who mourn in Zion, to give them an ornament (garland or crown) of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment (expression) of praise instead of a heavy, burdened spirit - that they may be called Oaks of righteousness (strong, magnificent for uprightness, justice and right-standing with God) the planting of the Lord that He may be glorified"

Isn't it great to know that He qualifies us (He is enough and I don't have to rely on my all too evident weaknesses but on Him)
Isaiah 61. 1a + 3 The Amplified Bible
