Prophets Message – John Valters Paintner

“I am often struck, in the prophetic texts of the Hebrew Scriptures, by the prophets’ ability to see the difference between what is and what should be. Sometimes I get so caught up in the ‘what should be’ part, that I miss out on the ‘what is’ aspect of life. I sometimes complain so much about the rain that I miss the rainbow.”
