Isaiah 55

I was trying to find a good verse for the column at right and found the following passage and I wanted to share it. It's a bit lengthy to put in the right column.

"Seek the lord while he may be found; call on him while he is near. Let the wicked forsake his way and the evil man [forsake] his thoughts. Let him turn to the Lord, and he will have mercy on him, and to out God, for he will freely pardon.
'For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,' declares the Lord. 'As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts. As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater, so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it. You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and hills will burst into song before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands.'" Isaiah 55:6-12
