GOD'S LIVING MESSAGE

 A voice says, "Cry out!"
       Then I said, "What shall I cry out?"
"Say all people are like the grass,
       and all their glory is like the flowers of the field.
 The grass dies and the flowers fall
       when the breath of the Lord blows on them.
       Surely the people are like grass.
 The grass dies and the flowers fall,
       but the word of our God will live forever."


-- Isaiah 40:6-8 (NCV)

You have been born again, and this new life did not come from something that dies, but from something that cannot die. You were born again through God's living message that continues forever. The Scripture says,
"All people are like the grass,
       and all their glory is like the flowers of the field.
The grass dies and the flowers fall,
but the word of the Lord will live forever."
And this is the word that was preached to you.


-- 1 Peter 1:23-25 (NCV)

We can stand on the promise of Isaiah, echoed by Peter: "The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the Word of the Lord stands forever."
