"When the Lord shall build up Zion, he shall appear in his glory.
He will regard the prayer of the destitute, and not despise their prayer.
This shall be written for the generation to come: and the people which shall be created shall praise the Lord.
For he hath looked down from the height of his sanctuary; from heaven did the Lord behold the earth;
To hear the groaning of the prisoner; to loose those that are appointed to death;"
Psalms 102:16-20
I like this idea that the Lord will come to help the destitute, the prisoners, and the dying. People who society overlooks perhaps, but in other, more symbolic ways that could also mean most of us since we are desperately in need of things that we don't have and can't get alone. We are prisoners to our own addictions and all appointed to death. -- And I think that God is coming to help people in need physically and spiritually... to show love to those most in need and to help lift them up who no one else is helping.
Today, as much as we can, let's look after those people that are overlooked, and let's God's hands in making the world better. Let's also pray to God in our own need, and seek his help and his hope.
