presence of god

¹¹You have made known to me the ways of life; you will fill me with joy by your countenance. At your right hand are delights, even to the end.

¹⁴And the Lord said, “My face will precede you, and I will give you rest.”

⁸My heart has spoken to you; my face has sought you. I yearn for your face, O Lord.

²⁰And then, when the time of consolation will have arrived from the presence of the Lord, he will send the One who was foretold to you, Jesus Christ, ²¹whom heaven certainly must take up, until the time of the restoration of all things, which God has spoken of by the mouth of his holy prophets, from ages past.

¹³You shall seek me. And you will find me, when you have sought me with your whole heart.

¹⁸The Lord is near to all who call upon him, to all who call upon him in truth.

⁸Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.

¹⁶Therefore, let us go forth with confidence toward the throne of grace, so that we may obtain mercy, and find grace, in a helpful time.

²⁶But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will suggest to you everything whatsoever that I have said to you.

⁵Let your behavior be without avarice; be content with what you are offered. For he himself has said, “I will not abandon you, and I will not neglect you.”

⁵Direct me in your truth, and teach me. For you are God, my Savior, and I remain with you all day long. ⁶O Lord, remember your compassion and your mercies, which are from ages past. ⁷Do not remember the offenses of my youth and my ignorances. Remember me according to your mercy, because of your goodness, O Lord. ⁸The Lord is sweet and righteous. Because of this, he will grant a law to those who fall short in the way. ⁹He will direct the mild in judgment. He will teach the meek his ways.

⁴May all those who act unjustly over nothing be confounded. O Lord, demonstrate your ways to me, and teach me your paths. ⁵Direct me in your truth, and teach me. For you are God, my Savior, and I remain with you all day long.

⁷Be subject to the Lord and pray to him. Do not choose to compete with him who prospers in his way, with the man who does injustice. ⁸Cease from wrath and leave behind rage. Do not choose to imitate the malicious. ⁹For those who are malicious will be exterminated. But those who remain with the Lord, these will inherit the land.

¹⁷The Lord your God is the strength in your midst; he will save. He will rejoice over you with gladness. In his love, he will be silent. He will exult over you with praise.

¹Rise up to be illuminated, O Jerusalem! For your light has arrived, and the glory of the Lord has risen over you.
