'SORROW AND SIGHING SHALL FLEE AWAY'


Isaiah 35

 1The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad for them; and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose.
 2It shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing: the glory of Lebanon shall be given unto it, the excellency of Carmel and Sharon, they shall see the glory of the LORD, and the excellency of our God.
 3Strengthen ye the weak hands, and confirm the feeble knees.
 4Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompence; he will come and save you.
 5Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped.
 6Then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb sing: for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert.
 7And the parched ground shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water: in the habitation of dragons, where each lay, shall be grass with reeds and rushes.
 8And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it shall be for those: the wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err therein.
 9No lion shall be there, nor any ravenous beast shall go up thereon, it shall not be found there; but the redeemed shall walk there:
 10And the ransomed of the LORD shall return, and come to Zion with songs and everlasting joy upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.

I was tremendously blessed by that little but very powerful chapter in Isaiah the other day and had to share it. I'm glad it spoke to you as well.

Indeed - 'But the Son will shine for eternity.' Come Lord Jesus, come quickly. Surely the day is drawing near. Be still my heart!

Love and blessings to you Annon.

Love the Lord our God with all your heart and all your mind and all your soul.

This is the reason we exist and the only way to have life more abundant. Jesus is the way, the truth and the life.

Thank you Jesus for all you have done, are doing and all that is to come.

Come Lord Jesus.

Love and His peace be with us all.
