Lord forgive us for running off ahead of You and Lord forbid that we would continue to do so.
(15) The Sovereign LORD, the Holy One of Israel, says, “Only in returning to me and waiting for me will you be saved. In quietness and confidence is your strength. But you would have none of it.
(16) You said, ‘No, we will get our help from Egypt. They will give us swift horses for riding into battle.’ But the only swiftness you are going to see is the swiftness of your enemies chasing you!
(17) One of them will chase a thousand of you. Five of them will make all of you flee. You will be left like a lonely flagpole on a distant mountaintop.”
Isaiah 30:15-17 (NLT)
ALL JOY!

Not a good fate.
Quite illustrative, heh.
