October and the trees are stripped bare
Of all they wear... But you go on And on |
The life of mortals is like grass… like a flower of the field; the wind blows over it and it is gone, and its place remembers it no more. But from everlasting to everlasting the Lord’s love.... and his kingdom rules over all. Psalm 103:15-19 NIV
“All people are like grass, and all their faithfulness is like the flowers of the field. The grass withers and the flowers fall, because the breath of the Lord blows on them. Surely the people are grass. The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever.” Isaiah 40:6-8 NIV |
Kingdoms rise
And kingdoms fall But you go on And on |
The Lord is King for ever and ever; the nations will perish from his land. Psalm 10:16 NIV
Nations are in uproar, kingdoms fall; he lifts his voice, the earth melts.... He says, “Be still, and know that I am God” Psalm 46:6,10 NIV Jesus: “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.... Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.” Matthew 24:7,35 NIV see also Mark 13:8 & Luke 21:10 |

#Bono: “The band felt like a HOUSE BUILT ON SAND rather than a CHURCH MADE OF STONE, a house about to be engulfed and swept away by the tension between faith and art. The word ‘KINGDOMS’ did not seem too grandiose.” #Surrender, “October” (Matt 7:26 & 1 Peter 2:5) pic.twitter.com/37gB8I3iPh
