What is that to you?

Song of Solomon 5:2-8

The groom knocked but had gone out. The bride opens the door but found him not. She called and find her beloved but the watchmen found her. The watchmen who intended to guard the city and protect its people. They were the one that abused and took advantaged of the bride.

What does it pertains? Where is Jesus in the passage? Every book of the bible points out to the One and only Saviour, right? If He is the groom, why did He knocked and leave? Why did He turned away and allow the bride to be taken advantaged by the most trusted people? 

Where are you watchmen? Why instead of guarding and warning the people of danger, you were the one who do harm to those who are weak? 

I don't know what it means but it brings hurt to my feelings. Grieve and sadness that visited my heart. Asking, why these things were needed to be happened? Why the people were so wicked? Why they took advantaged of the weak and needy? Why this world was so wild and cannot be trusted? Why the Lord seems to left us? Why is He silent about this? Why did He allowed the wicked to flourished in this world? 

Why His grace were so abound? Why He still give chance to the wicked? Why He still give grace to the people who ruin others life? 

Why, why, why?

With this so much why, I'm still defeated. Though many why's and question that my hearts utter, I'm still have no right to be answered. 

Who am I to say this? Who is Jonah to condemned the Niniveh? Why was he angry and showed care for the plant that he did not created? Was not the Lord also care for His creation? If the wicked were forgiven, what is that to you? Are you not one of them or at once become like them? 

What if the Lord wants them to be save? Of course He will. What if the Lord wants them to be used in His kingdom greater than as you were used? What is that to you? Have you created the people and the world? Do you owns this world? Is there anything you can do to save the world? No, you were just a steward and servant. 

Your business is to follow and to serve Him. 

"Follow Him".
