The Sure Foundation for Our Times

Not much to say in comment to the following passages. I pray they encourage you as much as they did me this morning.

Grace and peace to all of you.

"O LORD, be gracious to us; we long for you. Be our strength every morning, our salvation in time of distress. At the thunder of your voice, the peoples flee; when you rise up, the nations scatter...The LORD is exalted, for he dwells on high; he will fill Zion with justice and righteousness. He will be a sure foundation for your times, a rich store of salvation and wisdom and knowledge; the fear of the LORD is the key to this treasure" (Isaiah 33:2-3, 5-6).

A glimpse, perhaps, of what we long to experience "in that day":

"Your eyes will see the king in his beauty and view a land that stretches afar" (Isaiah 33:17).

Praise God. Knowing what is in store for us makes it easier to get through each day. But it'll be awesome to get home, won't it?
