BLESSED TELL TALES
Isaiah 9:1-7
You can tell Jesus’ reign by the Jesus traits. Gloom gives way to gladness. Darkness runs before the flood of light. The drawn face, white and tear-wet, becomes round with joyous smiles. Freedom displaces oppression. Weapons of strife make a good fire to warm by. It’ll be true, really, some day, on this old, sin-stained, hurt earth when Jesus does return. It’ll be true today in our hearts and circumstances if Jesus is in control.
