Exodus 1-2:22; Psalm 31; Matthew 27:45-66
The kings of the earth set themselves…against the Lord, and against his anointed…He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision. Psalm 2:2, 4
The Lord wept over Jerusalem because of their unbelief. Today He weeps over an unbelieving world again. However, His weeping will one day turn to laughter, as in derision He will judge those who are vainly trying to rule this world without Him. But as an individual, you don’t need to wait for that day. Turn from your sin and trust the One who loved you enough to die for you. Invite Him into your heart to be your Saviour and Lord. —David Croudace
Behold, He weeps o’er Jerusalem!
His soul with pity doth thrill;
He would have saved them, but “they would not,”
Thus He died on Calv’ry’s hill. —C. B. Widmeyer
