The desert shall rejoice and blossom like the crocus;
it shall blossom abundantly
and
rejoice with joy and singing.
The glory of Lebanon shall be given to it,
the majesty of Carmel and Sharon.
They shall see the Glory of the Lord,
the Majesty of our God.
the Majesty of our God.
Strengthen the weak hands,
and
and
make firm the feeble knees.
Say to those who have an anxious heart,
“Be strong; fear not!
Behold, your God
will come with vengeance,
with the recompense of God.

Behold, your God

He will come and save you.”
Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened,
and
and
the ears of the deaf unstopped;
then
then
shall the lame man leap like a deer,
and
and
the tongue of the mute sing for joy.
For waters break forth in the wilderness,
and
and
streams in the desert;
7 the burning sand shall become a pool,
and
7 the burning sand shall become a pool,
and
the thirsty ground springs of water;
in the haunt of jackals, where they lie down,
the grass shall become reeds and rushes.

8 And a Highway shall be there,
and
it shall be called the Way of Holiness
The unclean shall not pass over it.
It shall belong to those who walk on the way;
even if they are fools, they shall not go astray.
No lion shall be there,
nor shall any ravenous beast come up on it;
they shall not be found there,
but
nor shall any ravenous beast come up on it;
they shall not be found there,
but
the redeemed shall walk there.
And the ransomed of the Lord
shall return
and
and
come to Zion with singing
Everlasting joy shall be upon their heads;
they shall obtain gladness and joy,
and
sorrow and sighing shall flee away.
Isaiah 35 is exactly what we can understand during the Exodus. When God moved clouds by day into the desert of Mount Sinai, the desert could rest from relentless and intense light. And fire by night. The warmth from relentless cold. The tender growth could flourish and bloom abundantly, and all could rejoice with joy and singing.
This is the certainty of God. When Jesus was called to praise His Mother, whom He visited and took the Disciples to vacation with His Mother, He said, "More blessed are those who do the Will of God."
Mary was told in Luke's opening Gospel she was going to have pain and suffer enormously. Jesus knew His Mother had pain to come. The people of the Exodus thought they suffered, and, really, they rested in the providence of God.
Our choice to see our lives as blessed and worthy.
We can speak, soak up and sorrow in the walk to death. Constantly putting ourselves in death. Bring up the way to walk to go to death. Fear others who have life and attempt to bring people into death as well. No envy for the dead. End envy by corruption. Interest others in corruption.
OR
Philippians 4:8
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.

The wilderness and the dry land shall be glad

the majesty of Carmel and Sharon.

Abba, Father,
The oil of gladness instead of mourning
The garment of praise
instead of a faint spirit;
that they may be called
Oaks of Righteousness
The planting of the Lord,
that He may be glorified.
They shall build up the ancient ruins;
they shall raise up the former devastations;
they shall repair the ruined cities
Forget not all His benefits -
Who forgives all your sins
and
heals all your diseases,
Who redeems your life from the pit
and crowns you
with love and compassion
With Your Help,
believing Jesus walks on water.
