THERE IS
Today's reading: Isaiah 12-17

"In that wonderful day when the Lord gives his people rest from sorrow and fear, from slavery and chains..." Isaiah 14:3 NLT

The passage refers to a time in Israel's history when its people come back to the Lord, when their enemies are quieted and there is peace in the land.

This same passage made me think of heaven.

And an old, old song...

'There is coming a day,
When no heart aches shall come,
No more clouds in the sky,
No more tears to dim the eye,
All is peace forever more,
On that happy golden shore,
What a day, glorious day that will be.'


A day when bodies don't wear out.

When diseases don't gnaw.

When disorders don't distort.

When hearts are healed.

When pasts no longer keep us chained down.

When emotions are replaced with awe of our Savior.

Hallelujah, there is coming a day!
