When destruction is a mercy. (Isaiah 3:18-5:5)

It always made my eyes go wide when I saw massive sections like whole chapters and then some in a go, realizing how small some of these chapters are, not so much. Like six verses being the entirety of chapter four.
The reason for so many, I think, is to convey and focus on the fact that judgment comes. And we want it to. We want the poor helped, the needy looked after, and the hurting loved. It saddens my heart that we want it and ask for it, the being the hands and feet though.. not so much. All shooting to be "seen" and missing that HE sees all of us, and that darkness is as day for HIM, so there is nothing that HE cannot see. The only one having wool puled over our eyes is ourselves in that moment.
And there is also that often it was said "nothing would go wrong, our nation is doing just fine!" in the OT and I have heard such words spoken over our nations now. It's not okay, the fire is horrific, and the blood of the innocent and hurting is caking most streets in our nations, flooding through it in others. This is not okay and we know it's not! So why do we burry our hands in the sand and look the other way at such injustices. And I'm not talking a political group, I mean let's start at the homeless and kids starving and work our way through the laundry list of sufferings, people in need that are being ignored and passed over, the sins speak for themselves, so dealing with them, that's an act of mercy. Breaking the systems, and the nations that promote them, that keep fellow Image Bearers as less than nothing and seen as cogs and tools; a resource to be exploited- to break this is a mercy, to hear those crushed under its weight is a kindness. Showing that the "other" has not been forgotten is a act of love.

So know that HE does look out for HIS remnant, HE does keep HIS promise to restore. HE doesn't call the innocent guilty, nor does HE call the guilty innocent. Judgment is coming, will we trust that GOD is just? Cause we all want, or say we want, things set right. We wouldn't, our nations produced bitter grapes and a whole lot of whine, so HE has to, because HE is Good and Just and HE sees the people that we have elected to ignore.
