Is. 57 [The Message]
“Are we there yet? Are we there yet?” Most parents have heard this question when on a trip with their children. Many of us ask this question about the times we live in. We ask, “Jesus, are you coming soon? Our world is caving in right before our eyes.”
The prophet clarifies how we are to live as we wait: “Maintain justice, and do what is right.” It’s almost an “Occupy til I come” exhortation. Herein lies the key. We keep LOOKIN’ and OCCUPYIN’. He will come to those who look for Him.
Here is Gordon Jensen, the composer of “Redemption Draweth Nigh.” One important line is, “Keep your eyes upon the Eastern skies.”
ALSO: Thanks for praying for me. I had my 12th bone marrow biopsy done and all tests went well. I will meet with Dr. Solomon after Thanksgiving to discuss where we go from here. You are all GREAT FRIENDS.
Dean, I thank God for your ministry in word and in deed. I’m praying for you from my temporary post in Kegley WV. Love you and Patty so much.
Thank you. The best to you today.
