Proverbs 25.25 - Good News from a Far Country

Proverbs 25.25 - Good News from a Far Country

“Like cold water to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country” (Proverbs 25.25) This proverb is easy to visualize, especially as temperatures soar in Beijing this weekend. Cold water…with apologies to my friends who drink hot water only!...is what this American craves to slake my thirst. Apparently at least one biblical writer agrees with me! The point here, no matter what revives your parched spirit, is we have good news that is even more refreshing. News - perhaps brought by a running courier: a prince has been born! a battle is won! a king has been enthroned! – that would change the destiny of men and nations. No King has traveled farther than from Heaven. No victory has wider or more lasting implications than His cross. No other throne will endure forever. News from Heaven all the way to your heart; wonderful news!
