Your righteousness, O God, reaches the high heavens. You who have done great things, O God, who is like you? You who have made me see many troubles and calamities will revive me again; from the depths of the earth you will bring me up again. You will increase my greatness and comfort me again.
It is difficult to understand that You have a purpose in bringing many troubles and calamities to my attention; that this is for my own growth to draw me closer to You; to learn to depend upon You and upon You alone.
