Isaiah 30:15
God, the Master, The Holy of Israel,
has this solemn counsel:
“Your salvation requires you to turn back to me
and stop your silly efforts to save yourselves.
Your strength will come from settling down
in complete dependence on me—
The very thing
you’ve been unwilling to do.”

Isaiah prophesied in the 8th Century B.C. Yet overscheduling, independence, and personal accomplishment still receive higher praise than God’s radical call to surrender, turn back, and settle down.
Let silliness and joy model surrender to God.
