"Converting Grace" Isaiah 34-36; Colossians 2

We are on the right path to rest forever.  

All our sighs and sorrows will be no more.
We shall see the Glory of the Lord.  Isa 35:1

So,
Strengthen our weak hands, O God,
Make firm our feeble knees.
Let's say to those who have anxious hearts,
No More, Fear Not, Be Strong,
And speak peace to our brothers. Isa 35:4

For,
Our God is coming One Day with a vengeance,
and He will right all wrongs done against us.
Leave it in His Lap this day.
Our God will open blind eyes.
Unstop deaf ears.
The lame will leap and
the deaf will sing.

Yes,
There will be a Highway there...
and we are on that highway today.
Headed in the Right Direction.
The Way of Holiness.
Isaiah 35:8

Converting Grace.
Those who are barren in a wilderness
will sing again, will love even deeper, will grow mighty themselves.
That is the Gospel we live for, the Day we long for.

Oh God, help us see in our sighing that what matters so today will not be a thought in Eternity. What matters to me today is being around people who know-it-all; who don't give a flip about me; who think it's a great idea if it is their idea only.  Why does this bother me so?  Not a drop of that thought in Eternity. Let it go.  Help us to prepare for the Day we live for---to be with You.  May we not miss the Grace of God as we prepare for Eternity - Jonah 2:8.

O God! It is Your Power which works in me mightily---that is unbelievable.  May we all deeply know this day that You are at work in each of us.  Make our souls prosper, O God. Col 2:1
