Lifting our eyes above the circumstances

 


 

 

This morning I wanted to disconnect from the world of information that bombards me by the minute and just for one moment take my eyes of the circumstances we are living through currently.

My mind went to the Old Testament passage of Isaiah 6 that we studied just a few weeks ago in Sunday School.  It is one of my favorite passages.  In the midst of that larger passage is this verse that brought me comfort today.

“And one called to another and said:  Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory” (Isaiah 6:3, ESV).

In the midst of the pain and struggles of this life, we can move forward each day knowing that our God reigns and is seated upon his throne in heaven.

As you pray this week for the needs of your family, your community and your nation, I urge you to lift your eyes above the circumstances and gaze at our King.
