"When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers, they will not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be scorched, Nor will the flame burn you." Isaiah 43:2

May the Lord make you glad during this remembrance of
The birth of His only Son, Jesus Christ;
That as you joyfully receive Him for your Redeemer,
You may with sure confidence behold Him
When He shall come to be our Judge.
– Christmas “collect” (prayer) from The Book of Common Prayer (1928)
Man’s Maker was made, that he, Ruler of the stars, might nurse at His mother ’s
breast; that the Bread might hunger, the Fountain thirst, the Light sleep, the Way may be tired on its journey; that the Truth might be accused of false witness, the Teacher be beaten, with whips, the Foundation be suspended on wood; that Strength might grow weak; that the Healer might be wounded; that Life might die.
– Augustin of Hippo (354 -430AD)

The Prophet Isaiah 43.1-3
But now, thus says the LORD, your Creator, O Jacob,
And He who formed you, O Israel,
"Do not fear, for I have redeemed you;
I have called you by name; you are Mine!
When you pass through the waters, I will be with you;
And through the rivers, they will not overflow you.
When you walk through the fire, you will not be scorched,
Nor will the flame burn you.
For I am the LORD your God,
The Holy One of Israel, your Savior...”
