St. Matthew, Chapter 23, verses: 37c; Gathered thy children.

Our paragraph topic is:  (Lamentation over Jerusalem) Part 3.  

For God so loved the world and yet the world loved him not.  His heart yearned for the love that he gave to the world but the world would not give back.  Even his own chosen children that he led from the Egyptian labor camps to freedom refused to show their appreciation for his love.  Years went by and they forgot the mighty hand that he showed their parents and grandparents leading them to freedom.

Their God was a mighty God.  Their God was a loving God.  Their God was a God of mercy and forgiveness.  Yet they were a children and a race that strayed from him and went their own way.  He has said how often he would have gathered them together:  "As a hen gathers her young under her wings."  

How tender a sight to imagine and see such a protective moment that our God would provide for us such a gesture security, such a gesture of love, such a gesture of passion for his children.  Can we not see this happening to us?  Can we not feel his love for us that we would have such a moment of protection over us that nothing would happen to us at any time?  He is our protector.  He is our provider.  He is our be all and end all if we just call upon him to be there for us.
