highest energies to work in mind and heart. Through the grace given
us we may achieve victories that because of our own erroneous and
preconceived opinions, our defects of character, our smallness of
faith, have seemed impossible.
[160]
To everyone who offers himself to the Lord for service, with-
holding nothing, is given power for the attainment of measureless
results. For these God will do great things. He will work upon the
minds of men so that, even in this world, there shall be seen in their
lives a fulfillment of the promise of the future state.
“The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad for them;
And the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose.
It shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and
singing;
The glory of Lebanon shall be given unto it,
The excellency of Carmel and Sharon,
They shall see the glory of the Lord,
And the excellency of our God.
“Strengthen ye the weak hands,
And confirm the feeble knees.
Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not;
Behold, your God....
“Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened,
And the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped.
Then shall the lame man leap as an hart,
And the tongue of the dumb sing:
For in the wilderness shall waters break out,
And streams in the desert.
“And the parched ground shall become a pool,
And the thirsty land springs of water....
And an highway shall be there, and a way,
And it shall be called The way of holiness;
The unclean shall not pass over it;
But it shall be for those;
The wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err therein.
