Sunday Reading: Isaiah 6.1-8 ESV
“Vision of Isaiah 6.1-13”
Donald Jackson, 2005
In the year that King Uzziah died I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up; and the train of his robe filled the temple. Above him stood the seraphim. Each had six wings: with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. And one called to another and said:
“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory!”
And the foundations of the thresholds shook at the voice of him who called, and the house was filled with smoke.
And I said: “Woe is me! For I am lost; for I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for my eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts!”
Then one of the seraphim flew to me, having in his hand a burning coal that he had taken with tongs from the altar. And he touched my mouth and said: “Behold, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away, and your sin atoned for.”
And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?”
Then I said, “Here I am! Send me.”
Prayer: Heavenly Father – Give us a glimpse of heaven as we come into your presence today. Lord Jesus – Take away our sin and heal our wandering hearts. Holy Spirit – Send us out as bearers of your Good News… into a sad and broken world. In all we do, may we honor you. Amen.
