Isaiah 30:8-11

John Nunnikhoven

Now go and write down these words. Write them in a book. They will stand until the end of time as a witness that these people are stubborn rebels who refuse to pay attention to the LORD's instructions. They tell the seers, "Stop seeing visions!" They tell the prophets, "Don't tell us what is right. Tell us nice things. Tell us lies. Forget all this gloom. Get off your narrow path. Stop telling us about your 'Holy One of Israel.'"

Nothing has changed in 3000 +/- years. Tickle my ears with a nice story about an indulgent god who would not dream of denying me anything. You Christians always harping about sin and claiming that all the fun things of life have bad consequences. Go away with your gloom and punishment mentality. I want to believe in Candy Land!

Today's readings in the Psalms:

Morning: Psalm 64

Mid-day: 119:105-112

Evening: Psalm 140
