The progression of most people is that they start out as a blank slate. Life gets filled with the goings on of the day and it becomes more complicated. Marriage and children and school and pta meetings fill your agenda until you are an empty nester. Then life slows to a crawl and you die on a golden pond. What if God wanted to do something different. Let's say, backward. You are born in oblivion and lived a meaningless existence laboring in other people vineyards but never drinking the wine. Then one day when your bones are creaking and your hair is gray, you find love and legacy wrapped in the same box. You find money hidden in the crevices of your life that you thought were lost forever. You look up and you are living the life denied in your early years and you go down...................in a blaze of Glory.
Haggai 2:9 Context
6For thus saith the LORD of hosts; Yet once, it
is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry
land;
7And I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the LORD of hosts.
8The silver
is mine, and the gold
is mine, saith the LORD of hosts.
9The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former, saith the LORD of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, saith the LORD of hosts.
