Nevertheless, he looked upon their distress, when he heard their cry. For their sake he remembered his covenant, and relented according to the abundance of his steadfast love. He caused them to be pitied by all those who held them captive.
“Nevertheless” What a beautiful word for it indicates Your promise to never leave us nor forsake us. You will redeem and restore Your people and once again, use them to advance the Kingdom of Heaven on earth.
