The Real Desire of God's Heart

Therefore the Lord longs to be gracious to you, And therefore He waits on high to have compassion on you. For the Lord is a God of justice; How blessed are all those who long for Him. - Isaiah 30:18 (NASB)

I really believe that there are those whose lives are falling apart and feel that God Himself is against them. Indeed, He very well may have allowed this calamity to touch your life! It is exactly what happened to Israel when they turned from Him and said, "Get out of the way, turn aside from the path, Let us hear no more about the Holy One of Israel." Isaiah 30:11 (NASB)

While their sin had grieved His heart, God really longed to have compassion on them and save them and bring abundance back into their lives. Despite what you may be feeling about God today and His intentions toward you, know that He is waiting for YOU.
