Leviticus 26:36 (New Living Translation)
And for those of you who survive, I will demoralize you in the land of your enemies. You will live in such fear that the sound of a leaf driven by the wind will send you fleeing. You will run as though fleeing from a sword, and you will fall even when no one pursues you.
Those are chilling words:
you will live in such fear
What can be worse? The sound of a leaf hitting the side of your house causes you to jump off the coach and kneel behind a wall hoping that no one is smashing into your home.
God knows how to punish the disobedient. Boy, does he know how to punish. Live everyday afraid of everything. What could be worse?
And everytime I realize how debilitating the LORD’s punishment can be, I have a little better hint at the magnificence of His grace.
