Migration’s Shame

Romans 12:19 NKJV.

Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written: “Vengeance is Mine”

says the Lord.

Jesus said: “write this for Me.”

 

Migration’s Shame:

 

They huddled around fires

As the cold winds blew

The cries of the children

And the tears of their mothers

Mingled in the rain



The world looked on

Paralysed by greed

Knowing only its need

Afraid of some loss

From those who have nothing



But God sees

And His Heart bleeds

Oh how it bleeds

For the lost and broken

For the families torn



Their fear He knows

Their torment He hears

But the world doesn’t notice

God whispering 

“Someday I will repay”
