Reading: Lamentations 5:6-10: ... "Slaves rule over us; There is no one to deliver us from their hand. We get our bread at the risk of our lives Because of the sword in the wilderness..".
Everywhere
At first it seems these circumstances are so different from our lives and yet in some ways they are still the same.
Around the world we too get caught up in forms of bondage due to conditions, like a pandemic, and authorities and rulers--some that compromise safety in their aim for power.
We speak our truths at risk of condemnation and can receive broken relationships.
Or we keep silent and find ourselves drifting away from the Lord.
The wilderness is still deep and wide and filled with dangers. Everywhere.
Soul danger. Truth danger. Cost danger. Without You, Lord, everything is nothing.
Please lead us to go where You go Lord. To see daily through Your light and be Your people wherever You guide. Your heart within us throughout all our actions and decisions.
Your thoughts,
