"compared in strength to God, all things are as a broken reed."

"broken reed" is at 2 Kings 18:21 and Isiah 36:6 but i think i thought of this while reading Jeremiah 42:10-22.

the book of Habacuc

prophet to God: where is your righteousness, when you would punish our wickness by delivering us into the hands of those even more wicked than we have been?

God answers prophet: rest assured, they will get theirs too.

"If they did not believe Moses and the prophets they will not believe one risen from the dead."

Luke 16:31

"And thus consider through all generations that none that trust in him fail in strength."

1 Machabees 2:61

the fire already lighted

"I come to start a fire on the earth, and what more is there for me to wish if it has already been lighted?" Luke 12:49
