Lament
I wish my head were a well of water
and my eyes fountains of tears
So I could weep day and night
for casualties amoung my dear,dear people. Jeremiah 9:1
Who are the casualties of today? I don't mean just those who lost every thing in New Orleans, Texas, Flordia or recently in Kentucky and Indiana. They definetely need our thoughts and concerns, but are there others that we should be - side by side - expressing their's and our's - grief and sorrows?
Does that make us feel uncomfortable? Do you like many others put a time table on the legenth of time on someone elses grief? Say - like 4 to 6 months, then assume that they should be done with it - move on now! Snap out of it. Enough's - enough?
When I see TV. coverage of people in other countries , Weeping and wailing - it would desturb me, but I'm beginning to think they have a healthier attitude toward this thing called grief than we do.
