A lamentation is a song of mourning, and in Amos chapter five, the nation of Israel is mourned. In God's view, the death of the nation was complete. All that was left was for the people to make a choice. Would they seek God and live, or stick to their idolatry and suffer? Amos reminds the people of Who God is and calls for them to make their choice. Join us and be reminded of your need to seek God and live.
