If Only

As [Jesus] came near and saw the city, he wept over it, saying, “If you, even you, had only recognized on this day the things that make for peace!” (Luke 19:41-42a)

If Only —
the cry comes
when all is lost.

Seen above (and on home-page mastheads): “Being Against Existence” by Marilyn Biles.

Readings are from Streams of Mercy: a meditative commentary on the Bible by Ann Kristin Haldors Fontaine (used with permission of the author).
