Rejoice!

The Minor Prophets Speak to Today

 No Matter What -

I Will Be Joyful In The God Of My Salvation

Habakkuk 3:17-18

 __________________________________________________

I will be joyful!
What a wonderful quote from scripture!
But how many times is it taken out of context?
And it really says something when taken in context!

__________________________________________________________               

Even though the fig trees have no blossoms, and there are no grapes on the vines; even though the olive crop fails, and the fields lie empty and barren; even though the flocks die in the fields,and the cattle barns are empty, yet I will rejoice in the Lord! I will be joyful in the
God of my salvation!

 

  

No Matter What -

I Will Be Joyful In The God Of My Salvation

Now That Is Truly A Statement Of Faith In God 

not just sentimental praise
