April 14, 2009 - Isaiah 57:11 - 57:21

Where Do You Put Your Trust?
11.“Whom have you so dreaded and feared that you have been false to me, and have neither remembered me nor pondered this in your hearts? Is it not because I have long been silent that you do not fear me?

12. I will expose your righteousness and your works, and they will not benefit you.

13. When you cry out for help, let your collection of idols save you! The wind will carry all of them off, a mere breath will blow them away. But the man who makes me his refuge will inherit the land and possess my holy mountain.”

Grace to the Repentant
14. And it will be said: “Build up, build up, prepare the road! Remove the obstacles out of the way of my people.”

15. For this is what the high and lofty One says?he who lives forever, whose name is holy: “I live in a high and holy place, but also with him who is contrite and lowly in spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly and to revive the heart of the contrite.

16. I will not accuse forever, nor will I always be angry, for then the spirit of man would grow faint before me?the breath of man that I have created.

17. I was enraged by his sinful greed; I punished him, and hid my face in anger, yet he kept on in his willful ways.

18. I have seen his ways, but I will heal him; I will guide him and restore comfort to him,

19. creating praise on the lips of the mourners in Israel. Peace, peace, to those far and near,” says the Lord. “And I will heal them.”

20. But the wicked are like the tossing sea, which cannot rest, whose waves cast up mire and mud.

21. “There is no peace,” says my God, “for the wicked.”


I know I should place my trust in God.. however I find myself trying to figure out things on my own.. but in reality i know that it is Christ who makes impossible possible! I need to pray more.. so I place it all down unto Him.. 주님만 보고 달리겠습니다..
