"For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind."
Isaiah 65:17
I love this because it says so much. Whether literal or figurative or a little of both, the idea here is both the heavens and earth becoming new, so much so that we won't even remember the old ones... that's amazing, and it goes along with the theme of many of the surrounding verses, of a better existence.
I think that often we count our current hardships as everything, and make all of our decisions based on them, when actually in the long term, those aren't going to matter. Who we have chosen to become is all that will matter. Today, let's try to take a step back and work on becoming better people, trusting the Lord to get us through the hard chapters and on to the happy ending. :)
