Harvey recovery is gritty and difficult work. It takes a
long time to put a house back together after a flood. Truth is, restoration of
any kind takes a long time. In an Amazon-Prime world where everything happens
so quickly, it’s difficult to wait for results.
Seasons of waiting can make us doubt God. Does God care? Is
God listening? But Isaiah invites us to turn the equation. Rather than seeing
God’s character through the lens of our circumstances, Isaiah invites us to see
our circumstances through the lens of God’s character. That kind of waiting
renews our strength (“Those who wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength.”
Isaiah 40:31).
