Lamentations 2:2, 10-14,18-19; Psalm 74:1-3,7, 20-21; Matthew 8:5-17

we lament
we despair
they say peace
and prosperity
where there is none
as we reap
the destruction
that was sown
by our ways
until
a path
of integrity
is shown
a word
is spoken
to our humility
and healing
comes

What are the prophets saying?
From where will healing come?
