Famine

Famine. It’s coming. 

An odd theme to consider in the middle of Thanksgiving season. But there it is. In my daily Bible reading.

Amos the herdsman delivers this word of the Lord. To a people nonchalant. Complacent. And ultimately resistant. 

Unwilling to repent. 

And this is no scarcity of grain in lean years. Nothing like the famine of Joseph’s day.

Stone hearts

Soul exhaustion sets in. Unexpected. 

Byproduct from observing those who scorn the cross. And reject the gospel.

Stone heart resistance catches my breath. 

So, I pray.
