Isaiah 49:1-7: God says his servant will not only restore Israel, but be a light to the nations, and bring salvation to all the world.
Psalm 71:1-14: God is my rock and my fortress. God is my hope, my trust, from my youth. From my birth I have leaned upon you, my protector since my mother's womb.
1st Corinthians 1:18-31: Paul proclaims Christ crucified. Foolishness to most people..... Most people want to live forever, building companies and monuments. God says dying isn't the end. Christ's servant life lives on in those who believe and become servants also.
John 12:20-36: Jesus says, very truly, I tell you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains just a single grain, but if it dies it bears much fruit.....Jesus dies and is resurrected as the body of people of the earth. He says in verse 32, when I am lifted up from the earth, I will draw all people to myself.
