Stirred By The Scriptures

The final words in Habakkuk are some of the most stirring in all of God’s Word.  They describe the realities of life with the triumph of a man who knows where real joy is found.

“Though the fig tree should not blossom, nor the fruit be on the vines, the produce of the olive fail and the fields yield no food, the flock be cut off from the fold and there be no herd in the stall, YET WILL I REJOICE IN THE LORD, I WILL TAKE JOY IN THE GOD OF MY SALVATION.”

Lord may that be the prayer that comes from my lips and may I find my joy in you alone.
