Spiritual Encouragement

Wash and make yourselves clean.

   Take your evil deeds out of my sight;

   stop doing wrong.

Learn to do right; seek justice.

   Defend the oppressed.

Take up the cause of the fatherless;

   plead the case of the widow.

"Come now, let us settle the matter,"

   says the Lord.

"Though your sins are like scarlet,

   they shall be as white as snow;

though they are red as crimson,

   they shall be like wool.

    - Isaiah 1:16-18
