“Every valley shall be
lifted up, and every mountain
and hill be made low;
the uneven ground shall
become level, and the
rough places a plain.”
(Isaiah
40:4)
Roger Bullard, in his book, Messiah: The Gospel According to Handel’s
Oratorio, speaks of the power of these opening words from Isaiah, sung by
the tenor soloist. Bullard writes, “Herein
is the hope: God will yet act.” That news bears repeating again and again
and again…
Prayer: Lord, as we walk on uneven,
rough places today, may your Spirit lift us up, for you will yet act.” Amen.
