TOBIT 7:16C (2023)

TOBIT 7:16C

‘Take courage, my daughter; the Lord of heaven grant you joy in place of your sorrow. Take courage, my daughter.’ 

---- mine,

Take heart at the words I speak to you today. You have God for your Father, you have the Son of God for your Brother, Friend, and Spouse and you address me as the Bridegroom of your soul. Why then do you allow gloom to settle like a pall over your spirit? Have faith. Take courage. This day I solemnly declare that I, your Lord and your God, the Lord of heaven and earth will grant you joy in place of your sorrow. Laughter in place of your tears. And songs of rejoicing will pour forth from your lips in praise of the Living God. Doubt no longer but believe.
