Isaiah 55-56; Proverbs 20:21-30

Tuesday's Bible Reading: Isaiah 55-56; Proverbs 20:21-30

Election Day.

This is what the LORD says:
"Maintain justice
and do what is right,
for my salvation is close at hand
and my righteousness will soon be revealed.

Blessed is the man who does this,
the man who holds it fast,
who keeps the Sabbath without desecrating it,
and keeps his hand from doing any evil." —Isaiah 56:1-2

This verse seems fitting on a day when voters in Michigan will determine how effectively Dick DeVos has used his inheritance: "An inheritance quickly gained at the beginning will not be blessed at the end." —Proverbs 20:21

Sometimes in life it's hard to know where one thing ends and another begins.
