8 Who are these that fly like a cloud
and like doves to their windows?
9 For the coastlands shall wait for me,
the ships of Tarshish first,
to bring your children from far away,
their silver and gold with them,
for the name of the Lord your God
and for the Holy One of Israel,
because he has glorified you.
Prayer Focus: Did you have a chance to gather with your family around the holidays? I pray that your travel plans went smoothly and without incident. Isaiah suggests that God might use even the coastlands to bring children from far away. While the prophet Jonah went to Tarshish to try to escape God, the ships of Tarshish are the first to bring those who are distant back home. Pray for homecomings in this year that is ahead. Pray that God will bring everyone home. Pray for those who do not see a way back home. Pray that God will make a way.
