Some of the most beautiful and moving descriptions of the Lord Jesus are found in the writings of Isaiah, the prophet. In chapter 42, the Lord God speaks of Jesus as His Servant Whom He upholds and in Whom He delights. We read of His gentle character, godly conduct, compassionate nature, and lowly actions He is not a person that is overbearing or self-obsessed. Rather, He is identified as quiet, considerate, gracious, and sympathetic. Others may consider a bruised reed or smoking flax to be good-for-nothing, except to be snuffed out or trampled underfoot. But the Lord Jesus is God's good and gracious Servant Whom He has sent to heal the broken-hearted, to proclaim delivery to the captives, to recover sight to the blind, and to set at liberty them that are bruised and broken. And He Has Promised Never To leave us nor forsake us. He gives strength to the bruised reed and nurtures the smoking flax back to life. We may face injustice in this world as the enemy of our soul seeks to discredit our testimony, discourage our hearts, and destroy our faith, but Jesus has promised never to leave us and to be with us. Let's never forget that all authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Him, and a day is coming when He will judge the world in righteousness and faithfully bring forth justice, In God's Time And His Way. A bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out. In faithfulness he will bring forth justice; Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You for sending the Lord Jesus to be our good, gracious, and gentle Redeemer Who is coming back to bring justice and to judge in righteousness. Thank You that He walked this earth before us and understands our weaknesses, our difficulties, and our disappointments. Thank You that He will not crush a broken reed or snuff out a flickering wick, but has come to heal the broken-hearted and provide the strength we all need as we journey through life, for His name's sake. In Jesus' name we pray, AMEN. |
