The Voiceless Will Break Out Into Song!

While I was in Thailand, there was a part of Isaiah that really caught my eye, it's funny that most of the time while I was in Asia I was reading a lot of the prophets. And for some reason, God made it relevant to the country of Thailand, or other SEA countries, that He was starting something. That the people who were oppressed or who were being treated unjustly one day, would be free. That they would no longer be bound by the chains that had previously enslaved them.

And even now, when I read this verse, God reminds me that one day there WILL be an end, that trafficking will one day stop, that slavery will stop, that injustice will HALT all together. I can't wait for that day.

God has also blessed us with the knowledge of these things going on. How can one turn

blind eye to something that is so unjust? It breaks my heart to think that as Christians,

many of us focus on things that aren't relevant. And that not only Christians, but Americans

try to avoid knowing that this is going on in our world. God has blessed us with being a very

influential country. What if we changed what we were known for from celebrities, over-eating,

and spending tons on money, to working to change injustice. Not as a government, as a people.

Not really that sure what I'm trying to say, I'm mostly just thinking, and typing, but if we stopped

buying so many things that were made by slaves what a difference we can make.

Here is the verse from Isaiah:

^5-7Blind eyes will be opened,
deaf ears unstopped,
Lame men and women will leap like deer,
the voiceless break into song.
Springs of water will burst out in the wilderness,
streams flow in the desert.
Hot sands will become a cool oasis,
thirsty ground a splashing fountain.
Even lowly jackals will have water to drink,
and barren grasslands flourish richly.

I want change! I want hope! Let us stand for HOPE, let us stand for FREEDOM!
