They found themselves surrounded by godless people, and all Israel could remember was what it was like in Jerusalem. The beloved Temple and Jerusalem were destroyed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Israel pined for their freedom and their country.&nbsp;They remembered how it was before captivity left them grief-stricken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the past, they and Jerusalem were known for joyous singing and happiness. In their bondage, they could not (Psalm 137:4) utter a note when requested to sing.&nbsp;Their hearts were broken, and their spirits were crushed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Too many today find themselves with a similar sadness.&nbsp;They remember their joy and good times before reaping the consequences of their sin. When their memories drift back to those joyous days, they, too, are filled with sadness.&nbsp;It is heartbreaking to think about what one\u2019s life could have been without one\u2019s involvement in iniquity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The captive Israelites must have constantly pondered, \u201cIt\u2019s too late!\u201d&nbsp;Maybe they shook their heads in despair, thinking, \u201cThere is no taking back what we have done.&nbsp;We have sown sin and are now reaping its terrible consequences.\u201d&nbsp;Today\u2019s sinners also will one day have similar regrets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is no way to take back what was done; that is why it is so important to stay away from sin.&nbsp;Unfortunately, most have to live with the consequences of iniquity, but they can move forward without making the same mistakes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A repentant and regretful heart can decide to start over.&nbsp;Seeking God\u2019s forgiveness and help can give one a second (or third, or fourth\u2026) chance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Moping about \u201cspilled beans\u201d will not clean up the mess sin made.&nbsp;God is a forgiving God.&nbsp;There may still be a sinful crop that one will reap from the seeds sown by iniquity, but with God\u2019s help, one can still go forward.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Seek God\u2019s forgiveness and His help.&nbsp;There is hope!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Today\u2019s Thought:&nbsp;<\/strong><br>\u201cThe greatest griefs are those we cause ourselves.\u201d&nbsp;\u2014 Sophocles<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Words to Understand:<\/strong><br>Rase: level a building to the ground; destroy a structure<br>Zion: Jerusalem<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Today\u2019s Reading:<\/strong><br><em>Psalm 137<br>1 By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion.<br>2 We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof.<br>3 For there they that carried us away captive required of us a song; and they that wasted us required of us mirth, saying, Sing us one of the songs of Zion.<br>4 How shall we sing the LORD&#8217;S song in a strange land?<br>5 If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning.<br>6 If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy.<br>7 \u00b6 Remember, O LORD, the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem; who said, Rase it, rase it, even to the foundation thereof.<br>8 O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy shall he be, that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us.<br>9 Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Daily Nugget:Psalm 137 is a sad hymn that Israel sang.&nbsp;The time referred to in this song was when God\u2019s people&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":847,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":{"facebook_374886073925309_111414703907598":"","twitter_429426831_429426831":""},"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","footnotes":""},"categories":[72],"tags":[73,6],"class_list":["post-1149","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-psalm","tag-forgiven","tag-sin","wpcat-72-id"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t<!-- All in One SEO 4.9.10 - aioseo.com -->\n\t<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Moping about &#039;spilled beans&#039; will not clean up the mess sin made.
