Verses from Isaiah

因此，耶和华必等候要恩待你们；他必兴起来怜悯你们，因为耶和华是公义的神。等候他的，都是有福的。锡安的人民、耶路撒冷的居民哪！你们必不再哭泣。他必因你哀求的声音恩待你；他听见的时候，就必应允你。(以赛亚书 30:18-19)

Therefore the LORD longs to be gracious to you, And therefore He waits on high to have compassion on you. For the LORD is a God of justice; How blessed are all those who long for Him. O people in Zion, inhabitant in Jerusalem, you will weep no longer. He will surely be gracious to you at the sound of your cry; when He hears it, He will answer you. (Isaiah 30:18-19)

The Old Testament contains many accounts of God’s people crying out for help. Although their trouble was often self-imposed due to their waywardness, God was still eager to come to their aid.

Today, people all around us are in need of someone to take action to help them. It is a high privilege to become the hands of God as we respond on His behalf to cries for help.

As how God has helped us in our lives, let's help others as well, it doesn't have to be much, just a little gesture of kindness as a start.
