Have you ever had a time in you life when you felt completely content? A time of hope, excitement, and joy? A time that you wish could last forever. Then, when it is over, little things remind you of that moment and bring portions of that joy back. Have you had this incredible, life changing time?
I have.
As I was reminicing this memory I came across this verse:
The wolf shall dwell with the lamb,
and the leopard shall lie down with the young goat,
and the calf and the lion and the fattened calf together;
and a little child shall lead them.
The cow and the bear shall graze;
their young shall lie down together;
and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.
The nursing child shall play over the hole of the cobra,
and the weaned child shall put his hand on the adder’s den.
They shall not hurt or destroy
in all my holy mountain;
and the leopard shall lie down with the young goat,
and the calf and the lion and the fattened calf together;
and a little child shall lead them.
The cow and the bear shall graze;
their young shall lie down together;
and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.
The nursing child shall play over the hole of the cobra,
and the weaned child shall put his hand on the adder’s den.
They shall not hurt or destroy
in all my holy mountain;
for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD
as the waters cover the sea.
as the waters cover the sea.
Isaiah 11:6-9
Wow! How much greater will that be than any memory from this life! Oh to see that day!
So, today I just wish to leave you with a joy for the future. That hope, that excitement, that someday God will make all things new. Someday, our little joys of this life will be but a small comparison to the beautiful day of our Lord. Please remember this, and become excited about it. Why? Because someday will come far more quickly than we realize.
God Bless and have a wonderful, exciting, joy filled day!
