The eyes of the arrogant will be humbled and human pride brought low; the Lord alone will be exalted in that day.”
Isaiah 2:11 NIV
In that day…
Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter. Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes and clever in their own sight.
Isaiah 5:20-21 NIV
Lately, there’s been a lot of speculation about exactly when that day is, yet all we know is that no one does
People would rather waste time supposing they are clever enough to figure it out than to take the necessary step to avoid its perilous consequences.
I don’t care much anymore about the end times and last days or the end of the world as we know it.
I care about the people I know and love who, at least for now, won’t be joining me into the next beautiful life ahead.
If you do not stand firm in your faith, you will not stand at all
Isaiah 7:9 NIV
But I’m poignantly aware I’m not here to make their decisions but to stand firm and gently beg them to decide for themselves on that truth of which I have been convinced.
Because it will make all the difference,
in that day.
