Cloudy With No Chance of Wrath

How the Lord in his anger has set the daughter of Zion under a cloud!

Lamentations 2:1

We’ve all had our fair share of cloudy days. In the Bible, the city of Jerusalem had its fair share as well. In Jeremiah’s day, God destroyed Jerusalem for its great wickedness. And this was not the last time clouds would darken the City of David. Many years later, the sky would lose all light at noon on a very wrathful day indeed. If we are in Christ, we will never face those threatening clouds of God’s judgment because they have already passed over us in him, on the dark day he died for sinners. May this amazing encouragement help us face our own little cloudy days on earth.
