Remnant.


"But now I will not deal with the remnant of this people as in former days, says the Lord of hosts.  For there shall be a sowing of peace; the vine shall yield its fruit, the ground shall give its produce, and the skies shall give their dew; and I will cause the remnant of this people to possess all these things."  Zechariah 8:11,12 (NRSV)

There is always a remnant.

Even now, as the Christian Churches of the West decline, there is still a remnant, small as it is.

Let us hope that there will be a sowing of peace and that the dove will be seen once again in the earth.
