Is. 35 [The Message]

The details of the war in the Middle East leave us with a dim view of humanity. How can such atrocities happen in an “Enlightened Age?” Well, they’re happening right before our eyes. Evil still exists Without the hope we find in God’s Word, life is frightening.

The prophet Isaiah tells of sorrow and sighing fleeing away, and that everlasting joy shall be upon our heads. Such glorious predictions, I believe, apply to The Church rather than to just Israel. Christ’s blessings and future benefits belong to those whom He has redeemed by His Blood, and for whom He died. This chapter is worth a read to lift your spirits.
