Isaiah 11 It doesn’t make sense. What is

Isaiah 11

It doesn’t make sense.
What is seen and heard not being taken as the sole truth.
The wolf with the lamb.
The leopard with the goat.
A child leading a calf and a lion.
A cow eating with a bear.
A vegetarian lion.
Children and snakes.
This is a world that doesn’t make sense.
Historical feuds ended.
People walking across rivers miraculously.
Enemies silenced forever.
If all this can happen.
If a world can become back to front.
Then you, a remnant, a left-over, can be reached again.
You’re not too far off, nor too small and insignificant.
You may only be a shoot from a stump, a branch from roots.
However, you can walk tall again, not in hiding, not on a B-road but a High road.
It doesn’t make sense.
However, it is possible. So pray the ancient prayer.
Come Holy Spirit. As you did with Jesus, rest on me.
