You have turned my mourning into dancing for me. You have removed my sackcloth, and clothed me with gladness, to the end that my heart may sing praise to you, and not be silent. Yahweh my God, I will give thanks to you forever!
Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become new.
I waited patiently for Yahweh. He turned to me, and heard my cry. He brought me up also out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay. He set my feet on a rock, and gave me a firm place to stand. He has put a new song in my mouth, even praise to our God. Many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in Yahweh.
being confident of this very thing, that he who began a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.
This is the day that Yahweh has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it!
Oh give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.
A prayer
Original writing, not a quotation of Scripture.
Lord, thank you for this milestone, for every hard day I didn't give up, and for the freedom that's more real now than I once thought possible. I don't want to take credit alone for this, because I know I didn't get here without your strength and without the people you placed around me. Keep me humble and aware that freedom is something I keep choosing daily, not a finish line I've crossed for good.
Let this progress become hope for someone else who's still fighting. In Jesus' name, Amen.
