Peace and promise

Micah 4 Click here for the reading
Picture
In quite a contrast of God's judgement, Micah provides 4 elements of peace and promise.

1) Zion, the house on which God's house stands will become prominent in future days......but not right now.
2) Future generations will come and receive divine instruction toward international disputes.
3) There WILL BE worldwide peace. A future hope.
4) All people will have the means to pursue life to the fullest.

A great change of tone from the prophet and from God.

Every year I ask my mother what she wants for Xmas and every year she tells me the same thing...."world peace."  One year in College I got the idea in the grocery store to buy my mother 'whirled peas."  I told her it was the closest I could provide.  God will provide the real peace of the world.

Lord, we look forward to the promise of peace.
