Future Calling

Day 174: Jeremiah 50-52

"In those days, at that time,"
       declares the LORD,
       "the people of Israel and the people of Judah together
       will go in tears to seek the LORD their God.
They will ask the way to Zion
       and turn their faces toward it.
       They will come and bind themselves to the LORD
       in an everlasting covenant
       that will not be forgotten.

The people of the Lord will go in tears together and seek the Lord. They will ask how they can get to Zion, and then they will turn their faces toward it. They will come and bind themselves to the Lord in an everlasting covenant.

This reference to Israel and Judah--the people of the Lord--can be applied to us, too. We are the people of the Lord today, and one day we will seek the Lord. We will turn our faces toward Him, and we will make a covenant with God.

All knees will bow down. All mouths will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. We will all worship the Lord. One day.

I am Kara Poe Alexander. I began this blog to read the Bible anew, with fresh eyes and an open mind. I hope to grow closer to God, to learn how these ancient stories are still relevant today, and to develop a spiritual discipline of Bible study.
