Reformation Day – Don’t Steal God’s Glory

Happy Reformation Day! Tim Challies is running The Third Annual Reformation Day Symposium. Here are my last two entries. This year’s entry: Don’t Steal God’s Glory.

Isaiah 40

Isaiah 40 would be in my greatest hits of 2008. Song from Brothers of the Empty Tomb:

Here are the last few verses from the passage:

27 Why do you say, O Jacob,
and complain, O Israel,
“My way is hidden from the LORD;
my cause is disregarded by my God”?

28 Do you not know?
Have you not heard?
The LORD is the everlasting God,
the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He will not grow tired or weary,
and his understanding no one can fathom.

29 He gives strength to the weary
and increases the power of the weak.

30 Even youths grow tired and weary,
and young men stumble and fall;

31 but those who hope in the LORD
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint.
