Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful, for I have taken refuge in you; * in the shadow of your wings will I take refuge until this time of trouble has gone by. Psalm 57:1
Innocent blood has once again poured out staining pews and crying out for mercy. Violence has again burst unexpectedly into the news and into our minds and hearts. As we live into this time of anger and violence may we live this day as people of hope. As we live into this new day may the light of our hope shine as a beacon that shows safe harbor. May our prayers this day flow as many rivers into the sea and rise to fill the sky with tears that cleanse the hatred from our souls
