Sweet
potent as a honey comb
dripping its sorrow for indiscreets,
innocent ignorance
and imperfect stubbornness too.
Varied our sins of scarlet to black,
crimson to gray,
or any other variant hues.
Our prayers as incense.
Since,
“O Hearer of prayer,
to you people of all sorts will come.”
To your grand mountain
they will wisely stream
in joy and happiness to an extreme after learning of your wondrous name meaning “you cause to become” whatever you need to be
to save righteous humanity.
Said of you:
“God is not partial
but in every nation
the man who fears him
and does what is right
is acceptable to him.”
You only can make him stand.
To endure in his daily struggles.
To win in victory after his weary fight
through provisions impartially provided:
Your Son; Your Word; Your spirit.
Your people, who love you whole-souled in obedience.
In You
All glorious Creation will eternally
take delight!

“The sacrifice of the wicked is detestable to Jehovah, But the prayer of the upright is a pleasure to Him.” Proverbs 15:8.
“Also concerning the foreigner who is not part of your people Israel and who comes from a distant land because of your name (for they will hear about your great name and your mighty hand and your outstretched arm), and he comes and prays toward this house, may you then listen from the heavens, your dwelling place, and do all that the foreigner asks of you, so that all the peoples of the earth may know your name and fear you,+ as your people Israel do, and may know that your name has been called on this house that I have built.” I Kings 8:41-43.
Those Whom God Hears. People “of all flesh” may come to the “Hearer of prayer,” Jehovah God. (Ps 65:2; Ac 15:17) Even during the period that Israel was God’s “private property,” his covenant people, foreigners could approach Jehovah in prayer by recognizing Israel as God’s appointed instrument and the temple at Jerusalem as his chosen place for sacrifice. (De 9:29; 2Ch 6:32, 33; compare Isa 19:22.) Later, by Christ’s death, the distinction between Jew and Gentile was forever removed. (Eph 2:11-16) At the home of the Italian Cornelius, Peter recognized that “God is not partial, but in every nation the man that fears him and works righteousness is acceptable to him.” (Ac 10:34, 35) The determining factor, then, is the heart of the individual and what his heart is moving him to do. (Ps 119:145; La 3:41) Those who observe God’s commandments and do “the things that are pleasing in his eyes” have the assurance that his “ears” are also open to them.—1Jo 3:22; Ps 10:17; Pr 15:8; 1Pe 3:12.
