7. What is your favorite scripture?

Isaiah 41:9-10 — I took you from the ends of the earth,
from its farthest corners I called you.

I have chosen you and have not rejected you.
So do not fear, for I am with you;
do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you;
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
