7 Real Things You Can Do Now

A Prayer for Aleppo -David Morrison Christ, the suffering servant, make us aware of your presence: In the child dying in her father’s arms In the mother who has been desolated In the families that are no more Where rubble now lies: where peaceful homes were let seeds of peace sprout let hope spring out against all hope let healing come from unspeakable violence And for those of us watching in powerlessness: In our own vulnerability, let your Spirit whisper into our hearts. In our afflicted hearts, let our tears well into a flood. And in this flood, let justice roll like waters unto the earth. Make us your mercy. Make us your justice. Amen
