Japan, As the Sun Rises
LORD, this morning, thank you. This SONnet will please, tease, release:
I greet thee, having access to Your throne by Jesus
And His sacrifice on Calvary: We pray against the Virus
With a sunshiny name, an aura of a name, garland ...
Corona Virus, COVID-19, or SARS-Cov-2, Thy Hand
Is mighty and righteous, always Righteous, even in judgment
We deserve judgment, but we ask for Mercy
God of Grace and Love, forgiveness and Provisioning
Forgive me my greed, envy, jealousy, smallness and scheming
I intercede for others now, nations and peoples, as did Moses & Joshua
Japan: guide, teach, help the people, the frontline workers, its leaders
Not long ago, Japan had an earthquake that flooded a nuclear reactor
What lesson is Nature, are You, teaching Japan and all of us, Father?
All of us deserve judgment, we asked for it in many ways, but do forgive
