“Who do you think you are— building a town by murder, a city with crime?
Habakkuk2:12-14
Don’t you know that God-of-the-Angel-Armies makes sure nothing comes of that but ashes,
Makes sure the harder you work at that kind of thing, the less you are?
Meanwhile the earth fills up with awareness of God’s glory as the waters cover the sea.
I sit on the deck watching the sunset as darkness starts coming in, I think of the word God gave me today. It doesn’t matter what war the world fights, the cities that are built, or the hunger we have for money. All of that will cease, it will turn to burnt ashes and the glory of God Almighty will still be seen by the earth.
Our haste to get through the day, get more done, and accumulate more worldly possessions means nothing. All we have left is God and our loved ones. We need to stop and smell the roses before it’s too late.
In our rush to ignore God’s love, we didn’t realize, we had it all this time
Nothing will ever matter if we do not strive for You first.
Dear Lord, as we wind down for the night with children’s homework, food and family help us not to forget that You always come first. Nothing will ever matter if we do not strive for You first. Love You my Father and my King. Amen
