Hour
Matthew 8:12, “while the heirs of the kingdom will be thrown into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
Driven by whips
and cords of wrath
deep in Egypt’s land. A people cried.
And God heard. He remembered.
With gifts of love and covenant.
He lavished them.
Land of milk and honey. A Law to serve.
And they prospered. And they forgot.
Dignity stripped. Dispossessed.
Exiled deep in Babylon.
On the river’s edge they cried.
And God heard. Again He restored.
Words of scripture. Prophets sent.
Hoped for Messiah stood
among them. Present.
And they were blind. They refused.
And God’s heart broke. And He cried.
Psalm of Worship: Psalm 107:10-11
Some sat in darkness and in gloom, prisoners in misery and in irons
for they had rebelled against the word of God, and spurned the counsel of the Most High.
