Weekly Scriptural Reflection for 18 November 2014

And when you turn to the right or when you turn to the left,

your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying,

“This is the way; walk in it.”

Isaiah 30, Verse 21

What peace this verse brings to my heart. It reminds me that no matter where I go, what direction I go in, God is always with me. If I choose to listen to him, he will always direct me on the path that I need to travel.

He always has my best interests at heart and, even though sometimes things may not unfold the way that I think they should, I can fully trust in God to be leading me where I need to go. He is my loving Father, my Counsellor, my Guide.

Amen!

Blessings,

Weekly Scriptural Reflection for 24 September 2014

For the mountains may depart and the hills be removed,

but my steadfast love shall not depart from you,

and my covenant of peace shall not be removed,

says the Lord, who has compassion on you.

Isaiah 54, Verse 10

 
Here the prophet Isaiah is reaffirming just how steadfast the love of the Lord is for his people, for us. He uses the image of mountains disappearing and hills being taken away, in other words chaotic and seemingly impossible events, to show just how strong God’s love for us is. No matter what disasters may befall us, no matter what tragedies may surround us, God’s love is always present, an ever-present source of strength and support in difficult times.

And right alongside God’s love is his peace which he has promised through covenant to us, his children. He has such compassion for and mercy on us that his love and peace will never be removed, no matter what. What an awesome God!

Blessings,
