Susan Lafferty“Tear your hearts….” The words grab my attention.
I’m reading the Word of the Lord that came to the prophet. Joel.
Judgment approaches. The Day of the Lord is coming. And God extends the invitation to return to Him.
Even now.
In this season. Advent. As we wait and watch. Anticipating the coming of the Savior.
We live in a world of instant information.
Nonstop noise invading silence.
Multiple voices vie for attention and devotion. Some offer good messages and interesting ideas. But these too can distract. Derail.
And keep me from relying on the best.
His Word.
Him.
Dabbling in the Word of God.
Searching for a verse that fits. And serves my agenda. It happens.
Comfort levels sometimes dictate this. Looking for a way to stay. Or leave.
Wanting His Word to match my ways. My methods.
And back me up.
