God Quote-Repentance and Rest

JOHN SHIRK – In the Year of God’s Word, this is what the LORD says in Isaiah 30:15.

In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength, but you would have none of it.

God was saying this to a nation that rejected His message, relied on oppression and depended on deceit. Yet, the LORD was reasoning with them to change course.  He was pointing the way back to a place where they would experience God’s compassion and grace.

This is a good direction for our lives too-to repent of our sins and turn to Jesus. That is where we will find rest in God’s salvation. In quietness and trust, we will find our strength in God.

Isaiah 30:15-that’s today’s God Quote for us to embrace for Life.
