Isaiah 58:9-12

"Then when you pray, God will answer.  You'll call out for help and I'll say, 'Here I am.' 
"If you get rid of unfair practices, quit blaming victims, quit gossiping about other people's sins.  If you are generous with the hungry and start giving yourselves to the down-and-out, your lives will begin to glow in the darkness, your shadowed lives will be bathed in sunlight.  I will always show you where to go.  I'll give you a full life in the emptiest of places--firm muscles, strong bones.  You'll be like a well-watered garden, a gurgling spring that never runs dry, you'll use the old rubble of past lives to build anew, rebuild the foundations from out of your past.  You'll be known to those who can fix anything, restore old ruins, rebuild and renovate, make the community livable again."
