the psalm-prayer ...

The psalm-prayer for this morning after the reading of Psalm 65 began with this phrase:

"Lord God, hope of all the earth ..."

Indeed, such is true: God is the hope of all the earth. God is hope for the end of war; hope for the feeding of the hungry by providing humanity the means to do so; hope of people putting down their own lives of control to servanthood of the good of all.

And my prayer continued: "Pour out your Spirit on us so that our lives may bear fruit abundantly. To you, O God, our praise is due ..."

Amen ... so be it.
