Isaiah 3:1-4:6 | "Finding Hope In Current Chaos"
A Note from Pastor Mark:
“Second verse … same as the first.” I remember well that line from the song “I’m Henry VIII, I Am,” a 1965 song by Herman’s Hermits.
It makes me think of this Sunday’s message in Isaiah as well, for in chapters 3-4 we see a similar theme to what we saw last Sunday in chapter 2. Actually, though, that shouldn’t surprise us. I said last Sunday that chapters 2-4 formed one literary unit and we’d look at chapter 2 last week and chapters 3-4 this coming week. So, we are dealing with the same basic material.
But as the old saying goes, “Repetition is good for the soul.” I looked that phrase up in a google search, and Google AI said, “Repetition is good for the soul as it reinforces truths, builds spiritual disciplines, fosters a deeper connection to faith, and creates a sense of calm and focus.” As we consider once again the stark reality of our present condition as opposed to the coming future glory of God’s Kingdom, may it truly reinforce the biblical truths we learn, build spiritual discipline into our lives, foster a deeper connection to our shared faith, and create a sense of calm and focus as we look to Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith.
