Isaiah 51:11-17


11 Therefore the redeemed of the Lord shall return,
and come with singing unto Zion; and everlasting joy shall be upon their head:
they shall obtain gladness and joy; and sorrow and mourning shall flee away.
12 I, even I, am he that comforteth you:
who art thou, that thou shouldest be afraid of a man that shall die,
and of the son of man which shall be made as grass;
13 And forgettest the Lord thy maker,
that hath stretched forth the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth;
and hast feared continually every day because of the fury of the oppressor,
as if he were ready to destroy? and where is the fury of the oppressor?
14 The captive exile hasteneth that he may be loosed,
and that he should not die in the pit, nor that his bread should fail.
15 But I am the Lord thy God, that divided the sea,
whose waves roared: The Lord of hosts is his name.
16 And I have put my words in thy mouth,
and I have covered thee in the shadow of mine hand,
that I may plant the heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth,
and say unto Zion, Thou art my people.
17 Awake, awake, stand up, O Jerusalem,
which hast drunk at the hand of the Lord the cup of his fury;
thou hast drunken the dregs of the cup of trembling, and wrung them out.



Today's Prayer...



Lord our God,

We come to you, the source of all being.
You have said to us, "I am your God. You shall have no other gods
besides me. Honor none but me, your God." We thank you for this
wonderful message. Help us to recognize you more and more,
so that our hearts are full of the goodness and blessing we already
have on earth, so that we hear you, the mighty One, say,
"Stop, O people. Make peace. No one of you is more important than any other.
Remember that I am God of all, in south and north, in west and east,
on the oceans and everywhere.
I am the one God, and through Jesus Christ I am now your Father."


In the Name of the Most Holy we
pray in Jesus' Name

Amen
