The Jews were horrified when
Their city and Temple were destroyed
They were exiled, but managed to keep
Their faith. Today a great many Christians
Can identify with the Jews in exile as they
Have no access to a church, or their faith
Is outlawed. They may be soldiers on
The front lines, or a prisoner, or maybe
Homebound or in an area where there
Are no priests available. They could feel
Lonely or distant from the Lord, but the
Lord does not abandon them. We, too, must
Not abandon them, but love them, pray for
Them and bless them. We should never take
For granted the life we have. We open our hearts
To receive love and prayers and ask Jesus to
Stay close to us.
