“You nourish and sustain the world
from day to day,
and wherever we go
you are present more fully
than we dare presume.
We thank you for this presence,
this hidden, vulnerable,
yet faithful presence here and now.
We believe in it and live from you
as we live from bread,
as we hunger and thirst for peace,
today and every day for ever and ever.”
”My God, My God, why have you abandoned me?” (Ps 22:2a)
