Today's Verse

"The former things I declared long ago, they went out from my mouth and I made them known; then suddenly I did them and they came to pass." – Isaiah 48:3

There is a purpose to our lives, a reason for being, right? Sometimes it is difficult to see what that purpose, that reason, actually is. There are always going to be moments like that in our lives, but we can take comfort in the fact that our purpose was already laid out. Isaiah 48 is a great reminder of that. In this chapter, Isaiah speaks the heart of God for his people. He cries out to them, warning them of the consequences of hurtful actions. God does the same for us. With each moment we are given, He desires to remind us of what is in our hearts, good or bad. When the time is right, our purpose, our reason for being, will be made clear. Let us ensure we are not embracing life as the people Isaiah was speaking to did. - Commentary by: Matthew J. Elliott

Father God, Thank you for having a plan and a reason for our being. As we endeavor to live for you, help us to embrace what you would desire for us and not what we would desire for ourselves. Amen.
