Good morning! How are we faithing? Check out the imagery in these verses;
Mic 4:1-5
In the last days the mountain of the LORD's temple will be established as chief among the mountains; it will be raised above the hills, and peoples will stream to it.
Many nations will come and say, "Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob.
He will teach us his ways, so that we may walk in his paths." The law will go out from Zion, the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
He will judge between many peoples and will settle disputes for strong nations far and wide.
They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks.
Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore.
Every man will sit under his own vine and under his own fig tree, and no one will make them afraid, for the LORD Almighty has spoken.
All the nations may walk in the name of their gods; we will walk in the name of the LORD our God for ever and ever.
NIV
Man! Each sentence provides amazing detail. The old testament has such a way of speaking that the stories told and the lessons taught jump off the page! You know what is real cool? The lessons learned about apply to us now. Those verses above instill confidence and assurance for our future with God. Read more of Mica and see the things talked about in your minds eye. It is awesome in its depictions.
Remember Jeff M.....remember Ann Shepard....
Heavenly Father,

We ask that is comes so alive and relevant in our lives we need it as food daily. We lift those in anguish and those who are suffering loss this day. Keep them close to you and let them know you are holding them. Lord, protect the innocent. Guide our leaders and our troops, in Jesus name, Amen
