Locusts

Joel 2:25-26
I will repay you for the years the locusts have eaten
the great locust and the young locust,
the other locusts and the locust swarm~
my great army that I sent among you.
You will have plenty to eat,
until you are full
and you will praise the name of the Lord your God,

who has worked wonders for you;
never again will my people be shamed.
Joel 2:25-26



I am saddened at what the locusts have eaten in my children's lives.

More importantly...
I am amazed at how my Lord has already so generously repaid my dear ones for those years. We keep this verse written out on our refrigerator to remind us to continue to claim this sweet promise on their behalf.
