3 more days!!!

I just got a call informing me that one of the children from the care points had passed away. He was about 9 or 10; he drowned. My heart broke, tears filled my eyes, I took a break from my to-do list and reminded myself, once again, what its all about...eternity...

So much pain this Christmas, I wonder what He's up to. I found this scripture today and it just jumed out at me as an encouragement. I hope it is for you.
Isaiah 44:24-28:
24)this is what the LORD says
your Redeemer, who formed
you in the womb:
I am the LORD,
who has made all things,
who alone stretched out the
heavens,
who spread out the earth by myself
25)who foils the signs of false prophets
and makes fools of diviners,
who overthrows the learning of the wise
and turns it into nonsense,
26)who carries out the words of his
servants
and fulfills the predictions of his
messengers.
who says of Jerusalem, It shall
be built,
and of their ruins, I will restore
them,
27)who says to the watery deep, be dry,
and I will dry up your streams,
28)who says of Cyrus, He is my
shepherd
and will accomplish all that I please;
he will say of Jerusalem, Let it
be rebuilt.
and of the temple, Let its
foundations be laid.
