Sad news

Today the news headlines are full of sad stories. From the massacre of young children in Syria, to the killing of six children in their home and another earthquake in northern Italy. Let us remember all those affected in any way by these events in our prayers.

PSALM 62. 1-8

In God alone there is rest for my soul,
from him comes my safety;
he alone is my rock, my safety,
my stronghold so that I stand unshaken.

How much longer will you set on a victim,
all together, intent on murder,
like a rampart already leaning over,
a wall already damaged?
Trickery is their only plan,
deception their only pleasure,
with lies on their lips they pronounce a blessing,
with a curse in their hearts.

Rest in God alone, my soul!
He is the source of my hope.
He alone is my rock, my safety,
my stronghold, so that I stand unwavering.
In God is my safety and my glory,
the rock of my strength.

In God is my refuge; trust in him,
you people, at all times.
Pour out your hearts to him,
God is a refuge for us.
