Wiped Out

Wiped out. What do you do then?

“Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, through there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls…”

For a farmer…that’s being wiped out. The Prophet Habakkuk’s description is graphic.

And it happens in our day. Everything collapses. What once was is no more. You’re wiped out.

So what does the prophet say you should do? “…yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will be joyful in God my Savior.”

When you are wiped out…and are a person of faith…you still have what matters most – a personal relationship with the Lord.

So today – rejoice…regardless.
