Promises...

 Isaiah 51.3 is rich and full of promises.  Although, they may have been given for God's chosen earthly people, I believe Gentile believers may take them too.  I know I need them today.

"For the Lord shall comfort Zion: He will comfort all her waste places; and He will make her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the Lord; joy and gladness shall be found therein, thanksgiving and the voice of melody."

  • comfort waste places - Lord, forgive the time and opportunity I have made "waste."
  • wilderness like Eden - Lord, I thank Thee for making my wilderness wanderings like "Eden."
  • desert like the garden of the Lord - Father, thank Thee for making my desert like Thy garden.
  • joy and gladness shall be found therein - Lord, I praise Thee for restoring my joy and gladness.
  • thanksgiving and melody - Sweet Jesus, such wonderful feelings in my heart when you are near.
Simply, Amen.  Ps 57.7
