Matalena--from the tower (Madeleine)

Prov. 18:10

The name of the Lord is a strong tower;

The righteous run to it and are safe.

Hope--

Jer. 17:7-8

Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord,

And whose hope is in the Lord.

For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters,

Which spreads out its roots by the river,

And will not fear when the heat comes,

But it's leaf will be green.

And will not be anxious in the year of drought,

nor will cease from yielding fruit.
