“Please…”

“Please….” 

Once again, Moses stands at the foot of Sinai. Also known as Horeb. 

This time he’s not alone with the sheep.

But with a multitude. Led out of captivity.

A disobedient, fickle flock.

Arrivals and departures

Arrivals and departures. Travel patterns of individuals. Families. Groups.   

People of various languages and cultures and ethnicities. In the ebb and flow through airports. 

Walking the halls. Rushing from one terminal to another.

Or sitting. Wandering. Sleeping. 

While they wait.

City

“Afflicted city, lashed by storms and not comforted….”

He will build you a strong and beautiful foundation. Sapphires. And your wall? Precious stones. (Isaiah 54:11-12)

Then, that word mothers hear. And sigh in relief.

“All your children shall be taught by the Lord, 

and great shall be the peace of your children.” (Isaiah 54:13)

Hope. For the city of Zion.
