habakkuk

In tonight's reading......from what I am trying to figure out (this is a tough one).....it seems that Habakkuk is questioning if God truly cares and/or is fair with all the injustice going on in his time. I guess there are many Habakkuk today as well. We then learn that God assures us that He does hear our prayers and promises that He will deliver us (answer prayers) in His timing. We also read that God promises He will judge all evil in the world. We just need to stay faithful and keep watch.

So here is my lovely watchtower, made from that foam craft stuff. It does look more like a thimble that has seen better days.......but at this point, (just like last year...it's Dec 19th and I haven't even finished with my Christmas cards) we are going with it :)

The Lord replied, “Look around at the nations; look and be amazed! For I am doing something in your own day, something you wouldn’t believe even if someone told you about it. ~Habakkuk 1:5
