Isaiah 54:10  
”Though the mountains move 
and the hills shake, 
my love will not be removed from you 
and my covenant of peace will not be shaken,” 
says your compassionate Lord.“ (CSB)

Chaos is messy, dangerous, and loud. God is beautiful, peaceful, and compassionate. Earth’s trembling cannot budge God’s settled love and care for those who belong to him. 

This truth is good to recall when we see and hear news reports today of stupid people doing stupid things. It is worth remembering when it sounds like evil is gaining the upper hand.

This passage stands in firm solidarity with Psalm 46.

These words of truth and life point toward the cross, the resurrection, the ascension, and Pentecost. 

These promises endure forever. 

For as long as anything is, the core truth of the universe and everything beyond is God’s unfailing love, mercy, and compassion. Because of his settled nature and amazing grace, we can know peace even when there seems to be no peace. 

I will let the peace of God reign in my life. 

Our Father, every foundation stone but you is shaking now. Shaky are the halls of justice and learning. Shaky are those who redefine truth and debate its reality. People are looking for someplace firm to stand. They are looking for something to give them confidence and hope. Draw them to yourself. May they see you for who you are. May they experience your love, peace, and compassion. May they pass it along to their shaky families, neighbors, friends, and coworkers. Amen.

Daily D – Luke 1:76-79

Luke 1:76-79 And you, my child, will be called a prophet of the Most High;
for you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for him,
to give his people the knowledge of salvation
through the forgiveness of their sins,
because of the tender mercy of our God,
by which the rising sun will come to us from heaven
to shine on those living in darkness
and in the shadow of death,
to guide our feet into the path of peace.
(NIV)

Daily D – John 20:24-28

John 20:24-28 Now Thomas (also known as Didymus), one of the Twelve, was not with the disciples when Jesus came. So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord!”

But he said to them, “Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.”

A week later his disciples were in the house again, and Thomas was with them. Though the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you!” Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.”

Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!”

Daily D – John 18:10-11

John 18:10, 11 Then Simon Peter, who had a sword, drew it and struck the high priest’s servant, cutting off his right ear. (The servant’s name was Malchus.) Jesus commanded Peter, “Put your sword away! Shall I not drink the cup the Father has given me?”

Daily D – John 13:3-5

John 13:3-5 Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power, and that he had come from God and was returning to God; so he got up from the meal, took off his outer clothing, and wrapped a towel around his waist. After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel that was wrapped around him.

Daily D – John 11:6

John 11:6 “So when he heard that Lazarus was sick, he stayed where he was two more days, . . .”
