God Formed The Heavens To Be Lived In
From today’s reading…
For thus says Yahweh, the Creator of the heavens — he is God, who shaped the earth and made it, who set it firm; he did not create it to be chaos, he formed it to be lived in: I am Yahweh, and there is no other.” Isaiah 45:18
God does not create chaos or pain or sin or harm.
Because He loves us, He gives us free will, which we abuse and misuse.

God has not changed.
The heavens are still there for us to live in, but the only way we can get there is to…
Stay the course.Keep the faith.Endure.
Market like you mean it. Now go sell something.
