“We are in a time of shaking as God is sanctifying His people. Temporary things will be shaken so that we will focus our heart on, and hold on to, the eternal. There may be times when things seem uncomfortable however; ultimately the Lord is raising us up to be trees of righteousness. To console those who mourn in Zion, To give them beauty for ashes, The oil of joy for mourning, The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; That they may be called trees of righteousness, The planting of the LORD, that He may be glorified. (Isaiah 61:3)”
