even if the fig tree does not blossom
and there are no grapes on the vines
if the olive trees fail to give fruit
and the fields produce no food
if the flocks die far from the fold
and there are no cattle in the stalls
then i will still rejoice in the Eternal
i will rejoice in the God who saves me
the Eternal Lord is my strength
He has made my feet like the feet of a deer
He allows me to walk on high places
(habakkuk 3:17-19 the voice)
on being...
