Reflection for July 20, 2017

" For he did not despise or abhor the affliction of the afflicted;
he did not hide his face from me, but heard when I cried to him."(Psalm 22:24)

I rarely feel afflicted, saddened from time to time, annoyed occasionally, but I certainly believe that God hears my cries, I do not feel ignored.

I also believe that God certainly pays great attention to those who are afflicted. And actually expects folks like me to also engage them on His behalf. As people of faith we have an obligation not to ignore those who are afflicted, whether that be affliction through illness, or circumstances.  We are not given the choice to tune out their cries.

Blessings,
Ed
