Obviously, their words weren’t like […]

“The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord” Jeremiah 21:1a My comments today are not geared to this Verse, but explaining why I’m posting to begin with. I was not born or raised in a Christian Home. I was converted out of a life of Darkness in 1973 and given a New Testament to

“The heart is more deceitful than all else and is desperately sick; Who can understand it?” Jeremiah 17:9 In My Humble Opinion, this is one of the Most Important Verses in the Bible.

“But now, O Lord, You are our Father, we are the clay, and You our potter; And all of us are the work of Your hand.” Isaiah 64:8 I love the language of Isaiah; it’s filled with graphic imagery! Here he uses “Father” and “Potter” to describe God’s relationship to us,…His People. In the midst

“Behold, the Lord’s hand is not so short that it cannot save; Nor is His ear so dull that it cannot hear. But your iniquities have made a separation between you and your God, and your sins have hidden His face from you so that He does not hear.” Isaiah 59:1 This is a striking
