Thought for the Day 10/16/2008

It might help us to remember that the ones who sigh
and whose hearts melt and who faint
at the thought of the coming events
are those who do not have God.
So when we ourselves find our own lives hit this level of depression,
we need to pull ourselves up in the knowledge that
God loves us and has a desire that we might share in eternity.
It is those who have forgotten this that sigh and faint.
Isa.13:7, Nah.2:10
Peter Cresswell

And when they ask you, 'Why are you groaning?'
you shall say, 'Because of the news that is coming.
Every heart will melt and every hand go limp;
every spirit will become faint and every knee become as weak as water.'
It is coming! It will surely take place, declares the Sovereign LORD."
Ezekiel 21:7 NIV

"And when they say to you, 'Why do you groan?'
you shall say, 'Because of the news that is coming;
and every heart will melt, all hands will be feeble,
every spirit will faint and all knees will be weak as water.
Behold, it comes and it will happen,' declares the Lord GOD."
Ezekiel 21:7 NASB
