Streams of tears.

"My eyes overflow with streams of tears because of the destruction of the daughter of my people.  My eyes overflow continually and will not cease  Until the Lord looks down and sees from heaven" (Lamentations 3:48-50 AMP).  Jeremiah was called the weeping prophet because he saw the hurt and need of God's people. He recognized that the priests in the house of God were without a vision, and had no voice to cry out on behalf of the people. They lost hope for the nation, and kept their heads down. Israel and its inhabitants polluted and deprived themselves, forsaking the Lord, The Fountain of Living Waters. This all started at the house of God and with the men of God. "A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump" (Galatians 5:9). Corruption came in, took over, and the nation as a whole reaped from it. Where is the crying heart today? The intercessors of the nations? The men and women who see and feel a burden for the hurt and those in pain that cry out from the streets. We need to pray for the people of this world and our leaders. There is no time to play. We have to pray. God bless you all.
