"Keep watch, dear Lord, with those who work, or watch, or weep this night, and give your angels charge over those who sleep. Tend the sick, Lord Christ; give rest to the weary, bless the dying, soothe the suffering, pity the afflicted, shield the joyous; and all for your love's sake. Amen."
~Order for Compline, Book of Common Prayer
May the hand of God rest gently upon Boston this night, and upon all those who call themselves free.
May we rest softly in his mother's embrace,
May we rest softly in his mother's embrace,
And may God bless America.
Such a sad day for the US and all countries represented at the marathon... but we must remember He works all things for our good.
ReplyDeleteAnother a reminder that life is very short and that we never know the day or the hour. May we not weary in the race to which we as God's children are called. May it be for the glory of His Kingdom upon earth. Although time may not be on our side, His grace is. God have mercy upon us all.
