And the Lord said, “I have surely seen the affliction of my people which are in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmaster; for I know their sorrows; and I come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptian and to bring them up out of that and unto a good land and a large, unto a land flowing with milk and honey; unto the place of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites and the Hivites, and the Jebusites.” God has heard our cries and seen our pain, and it is His desire that we love one another and that we be brought into the land of peace. In order for this to happen, we must humble ourselves, hear one another, and care for one another’s wellbeing. When we humble ourselves and grow in the grace of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, He will begin to heal our land. The Lord said to Cain, “Where is Abel, thy brother?” and asked him, “What hast thou done? The voice of thy brother’s blood crieth unto me.” Here is how the story goes in Genesis 4:6-9: And the Lord said unto Cain, “Why art thou wroth? And why is thy countenance fallen? If thou dose, shalt thou not be accepted? And if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shat rule over him.” And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him. And the Lord said unto Cain, “Where is Abel thy brother?” And he said, “I know not: Am I my brother’s keeper?” If you are a born-again believer in Jesus, you should have the attitude of compassion. This compassion should lead to action. Jesus shows us that He is our keeper by His actions and with His life. Likewise, we as God’s people should show that we are one another’s keepers. Similarly, the love of God is shown when we listen to one another with the love of God in our hearts and not with our flesh. We must have love for one another by spreading love, and we must stop destroying one another with our words. We must stop stealing from one another’s lives, and we must stop shedding blood with the words from our mouths. God has heard the cry of the people, and seen the shedding of blood. He has provided a way for men and women to come out of bondage. Many have received God’s freedom, but many are still in racial bondage. Therefore, they try holding others in racial bondage. It is important for reconciliation to take place among Caucasians, African Americans, and other races.
