Lent: "Surely Coming"

Jeremiah 31:31

The days are surely coming, says the LORD, when I will make a       new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah.

If I am going to take anybody at their word, it would have to be God.  The thing that gets in the way is often the messenger, being one of those flawed vessels.  I have never heard a booming voice from the heavens, though God has affirmed things for me in other ways.  Certitude of a feeling, serendipities/coincidences depending on your perspective, unsolicited comments coming out of the blue from friends or strangers, scripture, and other ways have made God's inclination beyond clear.  In this prophecy in Jeremiah, God is giving clear inclination towards the future, the way things will be.  We become so fixated on the way things were, the way things are, the way things should/could/would be, but if we are going to bank on anything, I would invest in a clear word on what WILL BE.  God is saying that hear, what was is past.  The past is prologue.  As Isaiah shared, "Behold, I am about to do a new thing, do you not perceive it?"  Where are you facing today; what is your vector?
