isaiah

I finally finished Isaiah last night. And my overall impression of the book was that it is just such a beautiful piece of writing with some of my most favourite verses in the Bible. I remember the first time I really appreciated Isaiah 53, it brought me to tears - the suffering that my Lord went through for me. For US. There is nothing in the world that compares to Calvary love.

Verses like Isaiah 41:10 and 26:3 encourage me and remind me that His love for me wasn't just limited to Calvary, it is still there today and through Him I need not worry or be afraid and I can truly be at peace.

Isaiah 40:31 inspires me and reminds me of God's perfect will and timing.

44:22 reminds me of God's redemption of me.

Isaiah 6:8 gives me the inspiration and desire to have a heart of obedience and just do all I can for God.

What am amazing book.


Now, after being inspired by Ken Casillas during EBI (video course on the Old Testament), I have decided to read Genesis. I am thinking about doing this course as a Credit (doing the exams and all the 'memory work') because I don't really have much on in terms of commitments outside of work - but like I said, the jury is still out. We'll see what happens eh.
