From: jsuter@PROTECTED   A piece to consider -   J   O Jerusalem You are losing wisdom.  Your days on this path are numbered.  Throw off the yoke of bad leadership, the corrupt and godless men, always at war. They hide behind weapons so destructive that it may bring the end of Creation.    This is a false security.  It cannot save you.   Now enemies can make faster weapons, and more accurate. You cannot move ahead by beating down those who appear weaker.  Beat them down – or forgive your fathers.  Forgive yourself.  Can you do that?  You will not survive, Jerusalem, not on this pathway.    Turn from this.  Make peace.  Make a choice or see the destruction of Israel. You took the birthright.  You must be the older sibling, not the weaker slave. You reach out and take the lands of others.  You expand to where?  You do not know.   Lies, lies, lies.  These will not pull you out of this deep well.  Do something for others. This will be your salvation. Fear is at the door.  You will tear your garments, but You will not listen.  There is no music.  Your limbs are being cut off.  Avenues of commerce disappear and cut off sustenance.   Priests and rabbis chant empty words as the war continues. . . blindly.  Your ancestors will not save you.  They cannot make decisions anymore.   You cannot live out their fears.  You must move forward.   People do not know what they want.  They follow each other into the hell of destruction. We make our children brutish and numb.  Starving others is starving our own soul.   Jerusalem will be gone.  Even the wind will not whisper your name.  This is not Babylon.  Learn to live with others.  Look for a better pathway.  Northwest Ohio Peace Coalition Post to: Northwest Ohio Peace Coalition ( peacelist@PROTECTED )  Manage Your Subscription  Unsubscribe
