Isaiah 10-13
There’s Hell and Holy
coming. It is hard to interpret
Isaiah as it relates to our times but one thing is sure; God reigns and He’s
filled with fury and with love.
“Behold, the day of the Lord is
coming, Cruel, with fury and burning anger…” 13:9
If you had made the universe and
humans were your crowning achievement, wouldn’t you be filled with indignation
and fury at our prideful arrogance and outright cruelty at how we treat each
other and your creation?
“For the Lord God is my strength
and song, And He has become my salvation…” 12:2
And couldn’t you simultaneously
be filled with love and compassion for humans who are downtrodden, hurting, seeking
good, pursuing peace, helping each other and caring for your world?
READ CHAPTER 11
And because you had made us all
couldn’t you also be trusted to be fair knowing that each group were made up of
humans who were, in comparison to you, “all of us like sheep have gone astray”?
Isaiah 53:6
