| Isaiah 34 (Judgment) [Hell] | Isaiah 35 (Salvation) [Heaven] |
| Trusting the world/self | Trusting God |
| Becomes a desert | Becomes a garden |
| No way (34:10) | A highway (35:8) |
| Destruction and desolation | Restoration and renewal |
| The power of the Gentiles will be broken | The redeemed will see the kingdom of God |
| God's wrath against the nations | God's glory transforming Zion |
| God, not the world, is the one to fear | God, not the world, is the one to hope in |
Loved by God.

- * Let go of control. * Trust God. Thank God. Think about God. Talk to God. Talk about God. * It's good to suffer loss. It draws me to the Cross where God's loss is more than what anyone ever lost. * We cannot hear what the stories of the Bible are saying until we hear them as stories about ourselves.
