This chapter is both disturbing and encouraging to me. That God is sovereign over the affairs of men and He is building a great nation despite the sins and short comings of His people.
"As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts."~God
(Isaiah 55:9)
