Let Me In Oh Israel

ForeverJesus7

Oh Israel,

so warm and inviting,

in times of war,

you must defend yourselves.

You must guard your land.

You remain vigilant.

You protect your borders well.

Still, how fair is war -

that the inocent must continue,

to suffer under it's own ruler?

How fair is it -

that the inocent,

are confound to the wicked?

I do not blame you Oh Israel.

For you are accepting,

of the inocent.

Still I ask, "How long?

How long must this war continue"?

Yet, the inocent remain greatful,

for the aid you send,

and the food you bring.

(Sigh), How fair is war -

that a country's buildings,

cannot even remain,

intact for more than one month?

Oh the decisions,

that must be made,

to keep us out,

of your beautiful land.

Yet you defend yourselves honorably,

against a world,

that does not want you to prosper.

  • Comment from author about the poem: Perhaps this piece may be a bit political. Unless you live in one of the countries fighting in the Middle East, no person knows exactly what is going on. In that instance, we should turn to our Bibles. Not only does it keep us grounded, but the Bible itself accurately describes what is going on over there. We must pray for the peace of Jerusalem, and for those suffering the effects of the fighting. We must also pray that we remain steadfast to the Lord, and not get caught up in the world. Jesus saves. Persistence is key
