Isaiah 66: 12a, and 13a– “For this is what the LORD says: ‘I will extend peace to her like a river… and as a mother comforts her child, so will I comfort you’…”
Have you had the experience of reading Bible verses which seemed to be direct messages of encouragement for you at a specific time in your life?
That’s what happened to me this week.
I had been reading a chapter a day in the book of Isaiah for the past 65 days. Sitting down to read the final chapter on day 66, I read the verses I am sharing with you today.
But before I opened my Bible, we got a phone message.
Our great-granddaughters (twins) were born on Christmas at 24 weeks. They were 1 lb each. We prayed, immediately. However, it wasn’t until a few hours later that I read the message of peace and hope in Isaiah.
I texted my granddaughter with the words of encouragement.
If you are going through something today that seems to be overwhelming, remember that God is good. He is with you. He will make a way.
