From Lamentations 4: Eye Strain

”All the while our eyes were failing as we looked in vain for help; we watched from our towers for a nation that would not save us.”

You have spent so much time straining your eyes…

…looking for a political banner to rally under.

…imbibing cable news in search of an ethic.

…watching for world leaders you think might lead you.

You have spent so much time straining your eyes, searching for a salvation among the nations.

But you won’t find it there.

So maybe give your eyes a rest, and remember to rest in Him.
