“Though the fig tree should not blossom,
nor fruit be on the vines,
the produce of the olive fail
and the fields yield no food,
the flock be cut off from the fold
and there be no herd in the stalls,
yet I will rejoice in the LORD;
I will take joy in the God of my salvation.
GOD, the Lord, is my strength;
He makes my feet like the deer’s;
He makes me tread on my high places.”
-Habbakkuk 3:17-19
After reading this passage this morning, I am wondering how much I love God for Himself and rejoice in Him for His own sake, or how much I love the gifts and blessings He gives. For I certainly have been blessed.
I can sing "His love endures forever" along with everyone else, but how would I really believe that if I had nothing except His love? Thankfully, He is a gracious God and is patient and gentle with our weakness, our humanity.
