wipe away

Monday November 2nd, Isaiah 25: 8 The Sovereign LORD will wipe away the tears from all faces; he will remove the disgrace of his people from all the earth. The LORD has spoken. The tears will be wiped from all faces, not just our faces, not just the faces of those who agree with us, not just from the faces of those who look like us, not just from the faces of those who worship like us, but all faces. What does that say for our culture that wants to paint “others” as evil, or is so willing to go to war and kill to get what they want? The so called evil ones, and the war dead, theirs and ours, are our brothers and sisters in Christ. Those without health care are your brothers and sisters. Those whose jobs have been sent overseas are your brothers and sisters. We are called to be part of the process of wiping away their tears, anything less is causing them.
