Evening: Psalm 119:121-144; Luke 10:17-24
The ancient prophet is hopeful of a better future for his people. Because of their hardness of heart, they are scattered and exiled. The modern world is no different. Ignoring our instincts about what really matters, we run after idols and false gods, pursuing limitless economic growth and wealth at the expense of our own and the earth’s well-being. We seem to be exiled from our best selves. But we hold deeper values about what is good for us and for the earth. The prophet in me hopes that Love will soften our hearts and restore us, and the earth.
