Cries of Humanity
by Melissa Martin Listen. Do you hear? Each voice crying out. Each voice crying out for something. Listen. Do you hear? Each voice like each drop of water merging together to form a flood of tears. Listen. Do you hear? Each cry belongs to a person created in God's image. Each cry is heard by God. Listen. Do you hear? The cries of people echo in God's ears. The cry of humanity reaches God's mercy seat. Listen. Do you hear? Voices of all languages cry out for something. Different dialects but the same human cry. Listen. Do you hear? My own self-centeredness has drowned out the cries of humanity, the cries of individuals in my neighborhood, in my community, in my city, in my state, in my country, in the world. Lord, open my ears again to hear the cries of your people, the cries of my people. Listen. Do you hear? Melissa writes about the God and human connection and condition.
