Readings: Isaiah 58: 7-10; Psalm 112, 4-9; Cor 2 2:1-5; Mt 5: 13-16

you shall cry

for help

and God’s

light

will break forth

like the dawn

upon a wounded

heart

quickly healed

you shall

overflow

in generosity

feeding

the hungry

a shelter

for the homeless

covering

the naked

freeing

the oppressed

satisfying

the afflicted

salt of the earth

you are preserved

from destruction

rooted

in love

you shall not

be moved

Do you care for your own?

Do you feed the hungry and clothe the naked?

Are you a shelter for the oppressed and homeless?

Does the light dawn in your heart?
