Here are my thoughts and highlights from Nahum as I continue my journey through the Bible:

  • "God is serious business. He won’t be trifled with." We tend to only think about the "loving" God when in reality he’s also powerful and just.
  • "God doesn’t lose his temper. He’s powerful, but it’s a patient power."
  • When it feels like no one is there, God is. "God is good, a hiding place in tough times. He recognizes and welcomes anyone looking for help."
  • When Kayla first started playing soccer, we thought it would be funny if the team was nicknamed the juggernauts. She convinced her teammates to do it. Because of that, I smiled when I read, "The juggernaut’s coming!" in chapter two.
