Anyone For Global Repentance?
This picture, which I saw on Reuters, breaks my heart. Here’s the explanation:.
“A Palestinian father of five young girls, who were killed in an Israeli air strike, mourns as he holds his wounded son, during their funeral in Jabalya refugee camp in the northern Gaza Strip December 29, 2008. Palestinian medics said five young sisters died in an air strike in Jabalya refugee camp in northern Gaza and three other young children were killed when a bomb struck a house aimed at the nearby abandoned home of a senior Hamas militant in Rafah.”
I read about what’s going on in the Middle East and think - we are still primitives who have not advanced morally, at all. God is not pleased with this photo. Does God love this Palestinian family? Of course. God loves them as much as he loves you and me.
Who’s responsible? Not God. Don’t blame him for this. Both Hamas and Israel are responsible. We live in this sick world of earthly kingdoms in conflict. Regarding this nothing has changed.Hamas and Israel - can you rationalize your way out of this? NOTHING justifies this.
There’s a sickness in the human heart that’s not been eradicated. Every generation is born with it. This includes people like me and you. We all should get on our knees and repent of the sickness we continue to bring into this world. Anybody for global repentance? Anyone willing to lead the way?
Needed: a different kind of king, a different kind of kingdom.

Red, and Yellow, Black, and White they are precious in His sight Jesus loves the little children of the world. How sad! It’s this type of scene, played over and over again, that tells me evolution is a myth, and sin is real. Come Lord Jesus!
