“In Glory We Stand”

 Isaiah 60:19

No longer will you need the sun to shine by day,

nor the moon to give its light by night, for the 

LORD your God will be your everlasting light, 

and your God will be your glory.  (NLT)

     It is an awesome feeling knowing with certainty that you, a mere human being who has made many mistakes through ungodly choices, will one day share in the glory of God.  For me, just thinking about that day gives me a peace in my heart that is unlike any peace that this fallen world has to offer.  Knowing that our Creator and Savior provided the way for us to have the opportunity to share in His eternal glory always puts new life and new hope in our hearts!  Even as this world continues spinning out of control, those who belong to God are safely in the hands of our Lord God and Savior, Jesus Christ.  The Lord not only provides us with the strength to persevere when this difficult life is getting the best of us, but He also gives us the wisdom and the willingness to help and comfort those who have given in to the darkness of this fallen world and are succumbing to their pain and hopelessness. 

     But the Good News is, our Savior, Jesus Christ, has overcome this evil world, and no matter how hard or difficult this fallen world makes this life, the hope we have in Jesus, will be our Rock and our Refuge; a place where we can find rest for our weary souls, so we can stand strong and steadfast in our faith that God is God and the everlasting hope He promises cannot be taken away. This incredible inheritance is both a privilege and an honor, and a blessed gift that was dearly paid for.

                                      A Whisper of Hope 

Be still, My child… and know that I AM God.  There is absolutely nothing in this universe that is more powerful nor more gracious than I Am.  One day you will discover how wide, how long, how high and how deep My Love is, but until that day you must trust in My Word.

Psalm 62:5-8

Let all that I am wait quietly before God, for my hope is in Him. 

He alone is my Rock and my salvation, my Fortress where I will

not be shaken.  My victory and honor come from God alone. He

is my refuge, a Rock where no enemy can reach me.  (NLT)

                 For as the waters fill the sea, 

the earth will be filled with an awareness 

          of the glory of the LORD.                                                                    (Habakkuk 2:14)
