Forever

Grass withers and flowers fade

when the Lord sends the wind blowing over them. 

People are no more enduring than grass. 

Yes, grass withers and flowers fade,

but the Word of our GOD endures forever.  ~ Isaiah 40:7-8

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In the midst of our temporal circumstances, God calls out to us with hope of the eternal.

His Words are sometimes beyond our ability to completely understand.

Promises that touch the temporary with a glimpse of  Forever.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Daisies and carnations hint at the season just ahead. This is a beautiful image and a promise that believers cling to.

    Danise, great meditation for us. We can overestimate our importance, but His word is what endures. We can put our hope there! Thanks so much.

    That has always been one of my favorite verse!

    Despite your “loverly” flowers … and, in my case, the rocks I love and the trees and the clouds I post about … HIS WORD is what truly counts forever and ever. Need to have that on my heart and mind, no matter what I’m seeing.

    Thanks much.
