Isaiah 42

It took about 7 minutes to read this passage. God speaks of his servant; Israel? Elijah? Moses? Isaiah? Jesus? God describes the characteristics and fruit of his servant (all of the above). Full of justice, gentle to the damaged, protecting the weak, healing the sick. But in verse 6 God says that he made his servant a covenant for his people and a light to the nations. Those are qualities of Jesus that we need to develope in our lives as well.
