“Bring My sons from afar and my daughters from the ends of the earth— everyone who is called by My name, whom I created for My glory, whom I formed and made.” ~Isaiah 43:6
“Bring My sons from afar and my daughters from the ends of the earth— everyone who is called by My name, whom I created for My glory, whom I formed and made.” ~Isaiah 43:6
This whole chapter is magnificent! It demonstrates the depth of God’s love for all of His creation. How He is with us no matter what we're going through, whether undeserved suffering or something caused by our own actions.
He has made us ALL for His glory!
That pulls me up short - how dare I be grumpy about having too much to do, unfinished tasks or obligations.
Glory is full of light and sparkle and wonder - the light of our Savior. We all have it - God says so. Some have it deeply hidden, not even knowing it’s there. But when they recognize it! BAM! New creation in Christ!
Almighty God, on this last day of 2025 we are prepared to start a new year - let it be one of revival and recognition of Your Son. Let Your Glory shine through us - it is irresistible and relentless, just like Your Love. We want to be as You designed, made in Your image, overflowing with love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness and self-control. Thank you for Your mercy and grace - let it flow from us to others. Amen!
Cheers to a new year!
