Grim Friday

 “But this I call to mind,
    and therefore I have hope:” Lamentations 3:21
 
when each moment
stretches out endlessly,
when our loneliness seems
to throw us off kilter,
when the forecast for life today
shows fears storms swirling around us,
may we hear that hope
you whispered while wrapped
in death’s chill embrace:
 
“The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases,
    his mercies never come to an end;” Lamentations 3:22
