Trust

Woe to those who enact unjust decrees
and draft oppressive legislation
to deprive the impoverished of justice,
and rob my people’s poor of their rights,
looting widows and preying on orphans! 
(Isaiah 10:1-2)

 

Where are you when injustice strikes?
Where have your intentions gone?
You know that the laws do no longer apply,
Thumb-stained and trampled upon, they have been disposed of.Why are you so amazed?
Of  this you can almost be sure:
As a child of His, you are being treaded down.
Your rights are discarded.
Why are you so astonished time after time?Why are you still trying
so recklessly trying to prove that you are there as well?
Renounce that self- confirmation..
When one time I blow powerfully, where will they be?
Cease that stupid recklessness!

Trust Me and My promises
And leave the battle to me.
I know that you are here.
I know who you are.
You are acceptable to Me.

Trust Me and let go…
Prove yourself only to Me and relax…
Everything else… it is My honor that is at stake!
Just rely on Me and let go…

My people, My child, I will lead you
Into a land that is safe and smooth,
Where no-one can harm you.
Rely on Me and let go…
Trust Me and let go…
Just trust Me and prove yourself to no-one but Me!
I will guide you…trust in Me.

(Rosh Chodesh Tishrei 5771/2010)
