Day 109 Bible Reading: Joshua 19-20, Luke 19:28-47, Psalm 88:1-14 and Proverb 13:12-14
As Jesus approached the city on the last week before his crucifixion, he wept over Jerusalem because they had the chance to recognize truth and didn't take it. For three years everything there was to be seen as right in front of them. They'd listened and watched, but it hadn't made any difference to their hard hearts. No wonder he cried. Do you have tears for your city and country? Jesus is here to have a relationship with the nations!
"And when he drew near and saw the city, he wept over it." – Luke 19:41 (English Standard Version)
"Dear God, give me a passion and love for my city and country. May I see the hearts and lives of people here as you do - not just numbers, concrete, glass, malls or traffic. Give me opportunities today to share your love, compassion, and healing with those I interact with. Soften our hearts. In Jesus' name, Amen."
