Liturgy for the end of a shocker
Today, has been one of the busiest shifts in my memory. It has been chaotic and unsafe.
Yet, this I call to mind. This I put on
my lips… ‘I believe that you are Sovereign’
I put my trust in you.
Today, I have prayed for healing but then watched my patient
deteriorate.
Yet, this I call to mind. This I put on
my lips… ‘I believe that you are faithful’
I put my trust in you.
Today, stories of trauma were disclosed to me that have been
disturbing and deeply distressing.
Yet this I call to mind, This I put on my lips… ‘I believe that you are good’
I put my trust in you.
Today, I have heard your name slandered and misused. I’ve heard your people mocked
Yet this I call to mind, This I put on my lips… ‘I believe that you are holy’
I put my trust in you.
Today, I have been shouted and sworn at. Disappointed and grieving relatives throw
hate at me.
Yet this I call to mind, This I put on my lips… ‘I believe that you are love’
I put my trust in you.
Yet this I call to mind. This I put on my lips… ‘I believe that you are the one true God’
I put my trust in you.
Amen
