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

  • "What’s God going to say to my questions?" Isn’t it kind of reassuring to know even people in Bible days had questions for God?
  • "This vision-message is a witness pointing to what’s coming next." There are times when God reveals a vision for what’s coming next. He directs certain people to share that vision with others.
  • My timing is not always God’s timing. "If it seems slow in coming, wait. It’s on its way. It will come right on time."
  • "But the person in right standing before God through loyal and steady believing is fully alive, really alive." That’s the kind of life I want to live.
  • "I’m singing joyful praise to God. I’m turning cartwheels of joy to my Savior God. Counting on God’s Rule to prevail, I take heart and gain strength." I’m really not all that hip on the gymnastics for Jesus movement. I can’t even do a round off.
