Verse of the day
The thought of my affliction and my homelessness is wormwood and gall! My soul continually thinks of it and is bowed down within me. But this I call to mind, and therefore I have hope.
Lamentations 3:19–21
Voice of the day
There are hints of resurrection in the lectionary readings, but the pain and destruction of dreams and life that comes before is given its full due.
Prayer of the day
God of all seasons, in the ache of loss and the weight of what’s been broken, help us hold to the quiet hope that even in ruin, resurrection is already whispering its way through.
