First Reading for the Tuesday of the 1st Week of Lent

Isaiah 55:10-11

Summary: God likens His word to rain and snow that nourish the earth, asserting it will fulfill His intentions and succeed in its purpose, never returning empty.

The Power of God's Word

Thus says the LORD:

Just as from the heavens the rain and snow come down and do not return there till they have watered the earth, making it fertile and fruitful, giving seed to the one who sows and bread to the one who eats, so shall my word be that goes forth from my mouth; It shall not return to me void, but shall do my will, achieving the end for which I sent it.
