Isaiah 24-27
The sky is the color blue that you
imagine matches God’s eyes. The ponderosa
pines stand strong with thick, copper-gold trunks and green blouses. The
mountains are clear as crystal, green brilliant crystal! The sun is up warming my cold bones and
the earth smells like the neck of my granddaughters, spanking new and
sweet. My coffee is rich and black
and matches the night that has just passed.
These chapters tell us that at
some point God will put all this “asunder”, destroying it. I struggle with this, but can
understand. At times in the studio
the piece just doesn’t work out. But
God has a plan:
“He will swallow up death for all time, And the Lord God will
wipe tears away from all faces…” 25:8a
And a plan for the Rockies as well…
“And I saw a new heaven and a new earth…” Revelations 21:1
