This is a world where words cannot reach the hearts of people, society ignores the call of abused children and broken adults mentally and physically. There is so much struggling, striving labouring over possessions in which would be lost when time is at an end. "Meaningless! Meaningless! says the teacher. Utterly Meaningless! Everything is Meaningless. What does man gain from all his labour at which he toils under the sun. Generations come, generations go, but the earth remains forever." (Ecclesiastes 1 vs. 2-3)
This is describing man who partakes in vanity, "an excessive belief in one’s own abilities or attractiveness, originally meant boasting in vain, its considered a form of self-adultery, in which one likens their self to the greatness of God for the sake of their own image, and thereby becomes separated and perhaps in time divorced from the Divine grace of God. In Christian teachings vanity is considered an example of pride, one of the seven deadly sins." << Wikipedia
Today, I cried. I thought about what it really meant to be chained to a post, abused, solitary confinement, segregation, Famine, Captivity and poverty. I thought about being left in the dark in a world so large and no one to reach out. What it may feel like to stare fear or death, pain that cuts deep, walking around with a burden as large as the world on the shoulders.
After crying i reached out and called on the name of the Lord Jesus! Jesus! Where are you? I know we are not alone because you said Lord, Your Scripture Says we are "never alone...your presence is with us". Lord you said "the reward of the wicked is death, and no weapon that is formed against us will prosper" Lord rise up and provide for your children, we pull down the blessing stored in heaven into our lives tonight. Fill our cup lord till it runs over; fill our life with peace and comfort. Lord I pray for more of you, more and more of you in the lives of your children today. Let your presence be revealed like the sun unto the world...Amen, Amen.
