Isaiah 5:20 - Now


"Ah! Those who call evil good, and good evil, who change darkness to light, and light into darkness, who change bitter to sweet, and sweet into bitter!"  ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭5:20‬

Isaiah 5:20 - Now.  We are living at such a time, reading Isaiah 5:8-25, it can be today.  This is the message of the culture, there is no peace if one tunes into it and those that do, do not see it happening.   As Isaiah sat and watched, he was not caught up in the trap, he engaged with his Father in Heaven.  We too can step back and engage with God, to honor the Holy One of Israel.  "But the LORD of hosts shall be exalted by judgment, by justice the Holy God shown holy."  Isaiah‬ ‭5:16‬.  He will have His day, do not be caught up as in stubble.  "Therefore, as the tongue of fire licks up stubble, as dry grass shrivels in the flame, Their root shall rot and their blossom scatter like dust; For they have rejected the instruction of the LORD of hosts, and scorned the word of the Holy One of Israel."  Isaiah‬ ‭5:24‬.  Be engaged with your Father in Heaven.  

What is God saying to me: It will come to pass as in days of old.  

Dear Father, it is difficult to watch, we are each called by name but some chose to ignore the call.  I pray each are given ears to hear and see what is going on around them.  Give us the desire to know You, to love You and to serve You.  Prepare the vineyard for the harvest and make ready the workers.  Thank You for another day Father to draw breath from You and by Your grace to do Your will.  Prayers for a friend under attack, give him strength to handle the blow, protect him.  I ask this in Jesus name, Amen. 

Mary, Queen of the Holy Rosary, Pray for us. 
St Joesph, Pray for us.  




Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world.  1 John 4:4b
