So, the poor have hope, and injustice shuts its mouth. ~Job 5:16
We are silent
For now
The threats
Too incredible
To bear
But at polls
Our voices
Will ring out
For justice
And mercy
For hope
Not denied
From the One
Who gives hope
Eternally
We will trust
And believe
We will live
In promised land
And forefathers
Will rejoice
In the offering
Amen!
Prayers show trust and hope. We keep on praying.

Martha, your poem is so powerful. And I love the imagery of injustice shuts its mouth from that verse in Job.
ReplyDeleteInjustice will shut its mouth, Karen, of that, I am sure. God's Word will prevail in the days and weeks to come!

I mailed my ballot in this week. Praying for God's love to cover us all, regardless of any one person that sits in a big house in Washington, DC. God is always bigger, stronger, and best! Appreciate your prayers for our nation, Martha!
ReplyDeleteGod is ever large and in charge, Lisa, and we can rest in the knowledge that He is ultimately in control of all things. I'm still waiting for my absentee ballot to show up. Then, I plan to drop in a secure box for that purpose only. Not trusting the mail very much these days!

Oh, dear Lord, have mercy on us all. I pray and cry often over the state of our country, and I often wonder what the sound of over 60 million murdered babies crying out to God from the ground must sound like. I plead with God to have mercy on us for the sake of the future babies that will be killed if the wrong people take control. A shudder comes over my spirit to think how deceived even the "church" world is and how people's eyes are so blinded to the truth by the lying media. May God have mercy and override the mail-in fraud and all of the other demonic activity that is taking place, and may right win in this election. Praying hard along with you, dear friend.
ReplyDeleteI know you are praying right along with me, Cheryl, and we must persist! God will and does hear our pleas and our prayers for this great nation. May His Spirit move powerfully, and with healing, through our land.
DeleteLove and blessings!
Amen! I'm so thankful to know that God is in control no matter what.

Oh, yes, Kim, so am I!
