From Jeremiah 14:20-21:  “We acknowledge our wickedness, O Lord, the iniquity of our ancestors, for we have sinned against You.  Do not spurn us, for Your name’s sake; do not dishonor Your glorious throne; remember and do not break Your covenant with us.”

Famine in spirit

Eroding landscape

Darkest days ahead

Hopelessness takes shape

False prophets at work

Preaching hollow words

Continuous gloom

Gospel never heard

Sin ravages lives

Seeking true healing

Spirit never waits

Always revealing

Christ’s redemption saves

Spurning evil ways

Ember of faith grows

Resurrection’s blaze

Heavens open up

Showering God’s love

Grace enriches trust

Hope shines from above

From Jeremiah 14:22:  “Can any idols of the nations bring rain, or can the heavens give showers?  Is it not You, O Lord our God?  We set our hope on You, for it is You who do all this.”
