Text for the Day -- Micah 4:9-10
----------
Now why do you cry aloud?
Is there no king in you?
Has your counselor perished,
that pangs have seized you like a woman in labor?
Writhe and groan, O daughter Zion,
like a woman in labor;
for now you shall go forth from the city
and camp in the open country;
you shall go to Babylon.
There you shall be rescued,
there the LORD will redeem you
from the hands of your enemies.
Devotional
----------
Renewal often comes in trips to the wilderness. Sometimes we choose
these trips, knowing that we need renewal. Sometimes God drives us
into the wilderness so we have to find the renewal we need and are
avoiding. In the wilderness, the place of judgment, God leads us to
renewal and rescues our lives.
Prayer
---------------
Help me to know when it is time to seek renewal, O Lord. Amen
