—Joel 2:23-29
by: Grace Crouch.
After loss and pain comes the mercy of the Lord. Verses 28-29 move from Judah's problems to a promise in the future.
Even today, these passages speak to us. As we go through trials in our lives, the promise of being saved if we call on his name grants so much peace. Our bodies may not be suffering through a plague; our hearts might be.
Is there something keeping you from experiencing God's peace? "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved" (Joel 2:32a, NIV).
