Shoulda known, that out of several tens of thousands of sermons, the search engine would bring up ONE - yep, one - sermon citing Jeremiah 12:6. And that's just the half of it! Yep, glossed over.

Uh, anyone not living in a bubble, is aware that abuse is rampant.  Is it worse today than 50 or 100 years ago?  Don't know, and anyway, the past is gone.  All's i know is people (men, women and children) are hurting.  In other words, it's not just some drunk punching out his wife or some crack-beech mutha neglecting to change her baby's diaper for the last 36 hours. 

A certain Godly man - in his 60s - was upset and couldn't hold it in any longer.  His family had been head-gaming him big-time, for quite sometime.  Well - no shock - the congregation at his church, more or less, swept it under the rug.  That was like five or six years ago.  About a year ago, he developed neurological problems - 60-something's too young for that ... especially for a man who spent his life working outside, eating nutritious foods and having no parts of booze or dope.

Oh, not the first cry for ... just for some blessed validation, (like some empathy is asking too much??)  has gone largely (to say the least) ignored.  And it don't look like it's gonna be the last time either.   

Just so disgusted at a certain post.  Yeah, the author means well.  But what she was saying, and the Scripture she shared (which would bring up atleast 1000 sermons) is one which is frequently wrested in a power-game.
