Mountains as witness

This past weekend my family and I went to the mountains near us for some camping.  It was beautiful, with gorgeous trees and flowers and majestic peaks.  The mountains are good for my soul.  It was interesting then, that one of the mornings, as I was sitting on a boulder looking at the mountain peak, I read in my devotions Micah 6:1-2, which reads:
   "Hear what the Lord says:  Arise, plead your case before the mountains,
    and let the hills hear your voice.
    Hear, you mountains, the indictment of the Lord, and you enduring foundations of the earth,
    for the Lord has an indictment against his people, and he will contend with Israel. "

I think the Lord has an indictment against the Church in this land as well, and the mountains can be a witness.  We have sold out to the cultural pressures around us like the Israelites sold out to the pagan religions surrounding them.  Unless the Church returns to its first love and becomes again the pillar and ground of the truth, this nation will continue in its precipitous slide to immorality.  The meat without salt will become rancid, and we have already begun to see the rot set in.  Reform and revival must begin with the Church.  Lord God, have mercy on us.  We have walked far from your truth and have done what seems good in our own eyes.  Please create in us clean hearts and renew right spirits within us.  Amen.
