I think I would feel, “This is bigger than me, this is better than me, this is beyond me.” But the message I have to give is all bad news. I would feel a mixture of awe and grief. (N.B. I think the last verse with its tinge of hope is a later gloss).
very difficult as my tendency (& I hope, believe God’s might be) is to always “keep the door open” for people who do not see or hear etc might change. But when do we stop running after people who don’t change – is it better to ease off & stop running after these people ….? But I’d like to think I’d always be able to keep my door , my heart open for them if they came knocking. And keep them in my prayers too.
