I weep.
Yes, I do sorrow
for My children gone astray.
The ways of the world
have become their ways.
They neither know Me
nor care to do My will.
I weep for all who have turned from Me
to follow their own desires.
But I will not let them go.
They are My children
and I love them so.
I continue to watch over each one.
For I am a jealous God
and would have them know
no other god before Me.
My call is still there.
I wait for each to turn to
and return to Me.
For you shall worship no other god, for the Lord, whose
name is Jealous, is a jealous God.
(Exodus 34:14)
