“Patience is hope in action.”  Fr. Thomas Keating

Isaiah 35: 1-6; Psalm 146: 6-10; James 5: 7-10; Mt 11: 2-11

be patient

steady

your hearts

for we

shall see

and hear

and walk

and be raised

from the dead…

our Lord is coming

to save us

strengthening

our feeble knees

offering

firm hands

we rise…

the desert

and parched land

within us

shall receive

his rain

and our soul

shall rejoice

and bloom

with justice

and love

and song

we have seen

the coming of the Lord

and know

peace

Do you see with His eyes?

Do you see and believe in His justice?

Are you patient in your suffering?
