All who hear the report of you clap their hands over you; for who hasn't felt your endless cruelty?" Nineveh's…All who hear the report of you clap their hands over you; for who hasn't felt your endless cruelty?" Nineveh's empire falls and nobody grieves. Not one mourner. That is the real verdict, not the broken walls, but the fact that every neighbor was glad.
Your strength will not be what people remember. Your treatment of them will. Who would weep if your influence ended tomorrow?

The wall of insights
What touches you in Scripture? What can we pray for? What can we thank God for?
Father, I'm tired of pretending. I dress up my life to look fuller than it feels, and I hide what…Father, I'm tired of pretending. I dress up my life to look fuller than it feels, and I hide what you've actually given me. Strip away the act. Let me be honest about my emptiness and honest about your generosity, and be content in both.
You are rich in mercy, and I have lived off that wealth every day. Thank You for the great love…You are rich in mercy, and I have lived off that wealth every day. Thank You for the great love with which You loved me while I was still dead in my wrongs, love I never earned and could never repay. Thank You for that "but God" that changed everything.
My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. Stay here, and watch with me." He didn't ask them to fix…My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. Stay here, and watch with me." He didn't ask them to fix anything. He didn't ask for advice. He asked them to stay awake nearby. Jesus, who needed nothing, wanted company in the dark. Think of who might be asking that of you right now, without words.
Therefore turn to your God. Keep kindness and justice, and wait continually for your God." Hosea says this to Jacob's…Therefore turn to your God. Keep kindness and justice, and wait continually for your God." Hosea says this to Jacob's children, a family that had always grabbed and bargained its way forward. Kindness, justice, waiting. Each one asks you to take your hands off the scales. What are you still arranging for yourself, instead of waiting for God to give it?
Father, you are with us, and you have already given rest on every side. Help us to stop fighting battles…Father, you are with us, and you have already given rest on every side. Help us to stop fighting battles you have settled. Steady our hands for the work still ahead, and let what we build be for you.
