Remember

29 Apr 2022 | Our Father | 0 comments

Do not face us, O living God,

with the future of a world without justice

or a future without mercy;

in your mercy, establish justice,

and, in your justice, remember your overflowing mercy

in Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

 

Michael Vasey (1946-98).

 

 

 

Notes from the Compiler

'People claiming that they ultimately ended violence with violence are either liars or stupid, or both. War will continue as long as some people think of others as their enemy. Wars begin before the first explosion and end long after physical violence ceases. Violence originates in human heads, not in explosions; therefore, it is now - as it has always been - a spiritual matter.' Timothy Radcliffe and Lukasz Popko, 'Questioning God', London, Bloomsbury Continuum, 2023, p. 64.
