I am fully aware that what I share in the following paragraphs will most likely make some angry while others may laugh, and some might feel the need to pontificate.

I said I will do this for you when you have exhausted and abandoned your own ways, and refuse to follow the paths that others have set before you.

I decree that many of the long trials will cause the grapes and the fruit to be seen.  For your trials will reap your rewards.

I AM worthy of your trust, says the LORD.   When have I ever turned My back on you?

I AM He who has redeemed your life from destruction and I have crowned you with lovingkindness and tender mercies.
