Thursday 16th Week of Ordinary Time

 

Love Grown Old Jer. 2:1-13



Wedding days and honeymoons are fill with young love.
But as the years go by,
Sometimes that love begins to grow old;
Aged by fears, worries, money problems and and other crises.

This happened to Israel.
In her youth, she followed God everywhere;
Through deserts,
Fearing no evil;
As God led her into the Promised Land.

But then the love of her youth grew old.
As Israel forgot her early love for God,
And went to worship false gods instead.

Has our love for God grown old,
Or does the flame still burn brighter than ever?
