Isaiah is one of my favorite books. Especially when I need a pep talk.
Scripture of the day:
I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron: And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the Lord, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel. (Isaiah 45:2, 3 KJV)
This encourages me because I look forward and see a lot of crooked places... A lot of messed up places. I don't necessarily see how I'm going to get to the promises of God. But this said that the barriers between me and where I'm going are nothing to God. He'll smash them. And it's not that I'll have to get there and get discouraged because its blocked off... No, He said that He Himself, God Almighty, will go ahead of me and fix it up.... Wow.
He'll give me hidden treasures.
Walking in His will might look crazy and unprofitable, but there is treasures that we cannot see. Treasures that He promises us... Treasures that we'll miss out on if we walk by sight....
God is good yall
