Job 14:18-19
But AS A MOUNTAIN, if it falls, crumbles to nothing [hope of rising again gone forever]
and as the rock is removed out of its place, [shaken from its foundation]
as water wears away the stones [worn away by continuous resistance]
as water wears away the stones [worn away by continuous resistance]
and as floods wash away the soil of the earth, [hope of seeds to reproduce swept away]
So You [O Lord] destroy the hope of man. [what is life? we ultimately die]

Pray the Word:
Lord, we, too, can sink into utter despondency as Job when our patience, constancy, firmness, and beliefs of life are worn out by long continued trials and disappointments. But You are wanting us to understand that LIVING FOR TODAY IS NOT WHAT IT’S ALL ABOUT! This is not why human existence is given to us; this life is but the school time, a time of PREPARATION TO GET READY FOR THE REAL LIFE THAT LIES AHEAD of us in eternity! Help us to stay focused . . .

Thank you for reading my blog of thoughts, encouragement and instructions the Lord speaks about to me. It is simply my therapy to write down these things as I walk my journey out with Him. I would love to hear back from you. Each new day is a blessing! Dorothy
