"To this end was I born....." (John 8:37)
to preach good tidings unto the meek;
to bind up the brokenhearted;
to proclaim liberty to the captives;
to comfort all that mourn;
to give unto them [in Zion] beauty for ashes;
the oil of joy for mourning;
the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness......
- Isaiah 61:1-3
