Isaiah 54:4-8

A precious friend of mine shared this verse with me last night. It's still amazing to see how the Word of God can truly minister to you in your time of need, no matter how many times you have read it before. It takes on new meaning. How great is our God?

Isaiah 54:4-8

"Do not be afraid; you will not suffer shame. Do not fear disgrace; you will not be humiliated. You will forget the shame of your youth and remember no more the reproach of your widowhood. For your Maker is your husband- the LORD Almighty is His name-the Holy One of Israel is your Reedeemer. He is called the God of all the earth. The LORD will call you back as if you were a wife deserted and distressed in spirit-a wife who married young, only to be rejected," says your God. "For a brief moment I abandoned you, but with deep compassion I will bring you back. In a surge of anger I hid my face from you for a moment, but with everlasting kindness I will have compassion on you," says the LORD your Redeemer.
